I wanted to get a pro circuit works pipe for my 2003 yz 125, but they don't make them. I looked everywhere and they only had the platinum pipe, so i got it. But i heard you can take the chrome finish somehow and it will look like the works pipe. Let me know if there is anything like that. Thanks!

You can take the chrome off. Find a local plating company, they'll have a process to remove chrome (Really nasty chemicals).

After that, you go over the whole pipe with sand paper and wd40, then hit the welds with torch and voila!

If you can find someone local that would be ideal. If not, these guys do some good work at a reasonable price. I haven't needed their services as of yet, but know people who have used them with great results & come highly recommended.

They don’t make em anymore but 2000-2004 pc works pipes for the YZs all interchange, despite the different part numbers. They are out there, I just found a nos works pipe
