1941 Knuck Cad neck cup - looking for advise

[Rubicon]

I am in the process of restoring the frame and recently removed the neck cups, as they were painted paint. After removing the paint, the color of the cups is silverish and salmon pink. Should
I get these cups replated or should I go with the originals? Sorry in advance if this is a stupid question.

They were previously chromed. The copper you see is part of a triple plate chrome process. If the bearing surface is good I would just replate them.
