None of my business Paul, but I'm struggling to see the issue here. In your posted photo the bike looks fine, maybe real close up you can see a colour difference in the PVC and the bike. If you can, paint the PVC with what you used on the rest of the bike.

I used the last of my exhaust wrap to cover the plastic pipe, but looks rough so I will remove it and think of somethig else. Turned the filters vertical instead or horizontal. Not sure which looks best.


PVC takes paint pretty well. Maybe some silver with a clearcoat over it. Might look almost like chrome.

Yes that is a option.


Do a yahoo search (not google) for "how to chrome plate plastic" and you'll get a zillion hits on different ways to do that,.. some cheap and some obscenely expensive.

Like said previously - PVC takes body filler and paint very well.  You could use body filler to smooth out the space between the fittings/joints, then prime and paint in the color of your choice.

In the Plumbing Supply house I work at, we have so called double sanitary elbows. They look like two elbows fused together to one inlet at one end and the split up to either side. That should work really well too. We stock them in 1 1/2", 2" and 3".
