I'm replacing my old Kohler Villager tub with a new Villager tub. I will be using some designer color fittings, oil rubbed bronze or wrought iron, for the drain & over flow. Currently, the old piping for the drain & overflow is still in-place & made out of brass. Here are the questions:
1) What type of drain is perfered? trip lever or popup
2) Does the existing piping need to be replaced? It lookes to be in good shape
3) Where can I get the overflow & drain decroative fittings without buying a complete drain kit?
4) If I have to buy the complete drain kit to get the dcorative pieces, is Moen or Kohler prefered?
5) What is the durability of these designer finishes when compared to chrome?
Thanks for the help, FJK
