Silver bumper blade gone...

Hey guys I was driving down I75 going through Luna Pier in southern MI when a truck in front of me threw a nice solid chunk of highway into the front of my car...
It pretty much wiped out my drivers side bumper blade don't think it's going to be repairable... That said I have 2 options...
1. Try and find a silver bumper blade from a donor car and do a quick swap
2. Mina will set me up with all 4 bumper blades in Chrome at a rock bottom price.
I did recently change out my boot plinth to a chrome one and I really like the little extra flash it gives but am worried about the chrome blades looking out of place...
Thoughts folks... Anyone have a spare drivers side silver blade they could part with?

Trust me, I am all about the chrome but on an STR I would stay with the color matched.
Give www.motorcarsltd.com a call, they may have one.

No Joy....
Any other thoughts ideas here guys, I am nost sold on the Chrome option, but I just acnt seem to find a replacement blade of any color out there. I am sure I can have the body shop order one, but they are proud of their parts and with labor, paint and shop materials, I could buy 2 full sets of the chrome ones from Chris over at Mina...
ARGGHHHH why is it always the simple things... Anyone parting out a Silver Jag with body colored bumper blades???

You might check this guy on EBay parting a black one out?? He has the ad labeled wrong as the pictures are of a STR. The front bumper is badly damaged but maybe you can see what he's got left?

Second idea: Sand the chrome and paint it silver.
