I got a set of these from Big Mike a few years ago... one had bad
chrome, I recently got it rechromed  cooldude

They are carved from billet, not stamped steel. Big Mike guessed they were
Cobra, it makes sense... I like Cobra billet stuff, so that's what I'll think
too  Smiley ...

Anyhow, here's another set with maybe OK chrome for $40... I am certain
they are like mine, you can see the machine marks on the back of them...

I agree, they look just like mine and I am sure mine are Cobra.  All the other extra chrome on my bike is Cobra, so many that I put Cobras on my chrome side covers

  Both my pivot covers and radiator side covers need rechroming. Both are Cobra. How much was it to have the pivot covers redone?

I got it done as a reciprocal kind of favor... mine was done
really well, taken from a pitted moonscape to shiny smooth
chrome... PM me and I could try to get you in touch with
the chromer...

     They were $200.00 new/retail. I have a pair still in their original packaging with the price tag.
