Has any used Tygon® Silver Antimicrobial Tubing. I am thinking about building a black and chrome pc and want chrome tubing. Is this chrome it looks like it well silver anyway. Is there any other tubing that looks chrome.My other idea was black tube chrome angles and extensions. The latter can get expensive however, also i was toying with the idea of using metal tubes but would be hard to make changes if needed. also I'm thinking about getting a ray storm chrome edition. and chrome rad and adding chrome accents to the case and chrome fans.

That is a good idea how much the overlay cost you. I am seriously considering the copper pipe I found a guide online to plate it in nickel. While nickel is not chrome its pretty damn close shiny enough for me anyway. I am thinking of still use black tubing hooked to the pipe so it be easier to disassemble. Any got copper tubes how hard is it to disassemble any advice for me getting into it.

Think it cost me 30$ of overbraid and a lot of patience... =P
If you want copper tubes, BOB built a puter call the MKG. He won the MOTM contest 2 month back with it. He will be able to help you with that!

Google: 19mm Stainless steel Overbraid. You should see an E-Bay linky. It's the only play I found it. And TOS doesn't allow me to link them I think...
Edit: That's wierd, it doesn't show up anymore. Here, I'll link you the site I got it from, they sell on E-Bay.
