Avanti headlight round rings needed repaired or replaced

[gs-xnr]

I'm needing left and right outer rings (round) that hold the glass cover and seal to the body. I was installing headlights today and notice that the 3 rings I have are bent and/or broken. Does anyone know of a source for these or someone who repairs these pot metal pieces. If anyone has any spares that are in good shape I am a buyer.
Thanks again for your help.

I got mine from T-bow about a year ago, they fit good

Thank you jts359. I got the last 2 until Dave gets more in at the end of August.

You can repair the pot metal by filling in pits and there's a spray chrome process that will make them look better than new. Check with Jim McCaun.

How much are the ones Tbow sells?

If you are referring to the exterior chrome rings, I do believe they are supposed to have a unique contour/bend to them which makes them not sit flat when removed and placed on a flat surface and the need to properly clock them to the contour of the body when reinstalling.

How much are the ones Tbow sells?

129.00 each and they are beautiful.

And Dave's H/L rings are made of chrome plated brass instead of pot metal....have them on My Avanti...VERY nice

Dave has some here in S. Bend! I got some in May from Dave, fit and look great.

I noticed a used pair in the silent auction in the AOAI hospitality room this evening. IRC, they were up to $20. Auction closes on Thursday.
