Try Rick Miller 435 668-7062. He specializes in trim ring repair and restoration and will sell outright.

Call all your local Chevrolet dealer some dealers this was a stock item i just sold four for forty dollars from a dealer that was pushed out of in ct . The name Gem Chevrolet, mine were not perfect but being a fanatic because i loved showing my cars i would change them out often. Now i have the optional wheels which can take a lot of abuse before they show wear!
