I'd go with the new ones, personally. The new ones look patinated, but the old ones just look beat up and crappy... I mean, they look like they were mistreated and tossed into a barn for 50 years, whereas the rest of the radio doesn't look like that anymore, so to me the old corroded parts would look very much out of place.

And anyway, even if you think the new ones are too shiny, as long as they're not coated with anything then they'll tarnish over time and start to take on more of the 'antique' dark look.
