If theres any rust, fine steel wool, if not then just use some mothers :)

Turtle Wax makes a chrome specific polish that comes in a brake fluid style container. It works very well and costs very little.

Get yourself some good chrome polish and some 0000 grade steel wool (the finest). Don't worry, the steel wool won't hurt the chrome. It is the steel wool that really works the magic, but combine that with a good chrome polish and it will look better than new! ;)

Oh, and that link above posted is for polishing aluminum. It is not the same for chrome so don't use that how-to article or you will end up scratching and trashing the chrome finish :eek: . All you need is what I specified above :)

Just so you know they're nickle plated pipes, not chrome. I think that's different.
