Chrome Repair Question

The false nose piece on my TD radiator shell has a torn dented spot. I bought
the reproduction part, but it is a poor fit. Is there a way to repair the
original? The nose is made of brass, BTW. I'm thinking that some hammering and
soldering/leading could make the old nose whole again, but I don't know if the
solder/lead can be chromed. Thank god for the reproduction parts (especially
when the original's missing), but they're not always perfect.
