Default Question about chroming some nitrous parts, also a guage Q.

Hey guys i will start with the chroming questions that i have and they are this,
1. I want to chrome my TNT power ring because it is a little beat up(got it used) and also because i am not real fond of the purpleish/pink color that it sits at right now, are their any probs with this? Also shoul di not have the inside chromed, or will it be ok to chrome the whole thing?

Next qustion is, i also want to chrome the little nozzles that screw into the ring, will it be a problem to chrome these? any thing i should look out for, possibly avoid if i do?

Also i have a guage mounted on the bottle, but right now with no pressure it it sits at almost 450psi, i take it that it is broken?
thanks
Louie

Why chrome? Why not polish them instead? If they are anodized already, you can take them to a "anodizer" and have them "dipped". I had all 8 of my direct port nozzles dipped and then polished. The anodizer I go to dipped them for free and it took 5 minutes..

I agree, just have them dipped and I think your gauge may be broken.
