OEM Vs Aftermarket (Brothers bumpers and tailgate)

Need a new tailgate and front/back bumpers.

I am looking at the smoothy chrome. It makes me nervous because chrome isnt what it used to be back in the day. I have seen so many examples of a new 'chrome' aftermarket part turning to rust or start pealing in less than a year, even with decent care.

The question is:
How good is the chrome on the Brothers bumpers?
The truck will be kept in a garage.
I am painting the truck anyway so its no issue going painted if the chrome is so-so.

Also....

The brothers tailgate....

I can buy a decent tailgate on CL for the same money as the Brothers aftermarket. How is the quality of the Brothers piece in comparison to OEM

Tks,

~JH
