There used to be metal shops which would "straighten and rechrome" and
they'd look like new at a much lover price, but I think whacking it with a
hammer would leave it looking as if you'd done just that. Try for a metal
shop specializing in auto chrome or hunt in a wrecking yard....as you may
know, these folks have a hot-line where they can call all the surrounding
yards for the part if they themselves don't have it.
hope this helps.
