You can find'em on ebay quite a bit, but I've never seen'em used on our cars, and I'm not sure it would do very well, since our engines tend to twist alot, and chrome piping doesn't seem like it's very flexible....anybody else? Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong
The chrome pipes are generally on blower cars and they do alright IMHO. The coupling has enough flex to handle articulation.
Something that worries me about the braided hoses: the one I felt was really stiff (that sentence came out wrong). I was not comfy tossing it on the radiator neck (sideloading concerns). I'd like the articulated metal hoses, but they're like a brick of sharp.

One other idea, though it's not something I've done. Have you considered one of those braided sleeve kits? I don't know how they look once installed, but I bet it's pretty decent overall. The cost is quite minimal.
Good luck.
