Default C5 Fuel Pressure Regulator

Hey guys, Does anyone know where I could get a new fuel pressure regulator for my 98 that's OTHER than OEM? I had my fuel rail chromed and I wanted to replace the regulator and hopefully find one that will compliment the new fuel rail. (chrome, red, blue, etc...) I don't want to spray paint it, I would prefer to get one already done. Any pics/links would be greatly appreciated!

do you have pics of what you're working with?... I thought the regulator was made into the rails and can't totally be removed... I believe the part where the vacuum line attaches is replaceable but the rest is part of the rails

Nope the regulator is not part of the rails it is removed with a pair of snap ring pliers. Years ago I had one that was adjustable I purchased from a Ramchargers store it was just under $200.00 but turned out to be a piece of crap and started leaking around the adjusting screw.

You can polish your factory one. I did that with mine.

Here's one I did for a friend that has a '97
