Yes and pot metal does not do well in the sulfuric acid bath used for cleaning the metal before new chrome is applied...Mine basically dissolved. OK though cause the chromer said it was his fault and replaced them with some new shiny ones.

I think there is confusion between the front over riders and the fog mount brackets. The over riders are steel. The fog lamp brackets which are bolted to them are pot metal.

I too had the chrome on my Varitone redone. While I remember the door handles, hood hinges, backup/license lamp cover, and some of the interior pieces being pot metal, the bumper guards on my car seemed like real steel. Wouldn't they have to be, since the mounting plate is welded to the formed guard?
