I wouldn't try taking the brake booster apart, they need all kinds of special tools that only shops and garages usually have. You could possibly take it somewhere and have them disassemble it, or just mask it off real good and paint it a color to match your engine bay scheme. Perhaps you could also have it powdercoated. When they powdercoat, they spray it on similar to paint, and then bake it on. They might be able to powdercoat it easier than it is to chrome it, I don't really know though, I don't have much experience in that field.

As for the ABS System, the only component I know of that could possibly be removed for "dress-up" purposes would be the actuator, although I'm sure it is is much like the brake booster in its awkwardness to be chrome plated, ect. But you'd have to make that decision for yourself. Good luck with all the work and be careful when messing with the brakes, you wanna make sure you reconnect everything correctly as to not let all that hard work end up as a smoking heap on the side of the road somewhere. Peace.
