Several companies used (a few years back) to make turned aluminium extingisher and nitrous bottles in verious sizes. Try searching for 'Parts by Parks' and 'R&D Unique'. They mostly make conventional Hot Rod parts but they may be of use.

I have access to a lathe and a few other machine tools and I'm looking into the possibility of small runs of turned metal detail parts. nothing definite yet, I'll post when i know more...

WOW~!!

i didn't know this place, Detail Masters, even existed...

And it turns out they're local, they are about 10mins into the city from where i live!!!

Too bad i'm in Buffalo at college right now so no modeling till i get back so my ITR won't be finished for a while either

next time i'm home i'll have to give this place a look.

I want to get a nitrous bottle too. Only thing is, it's about 10 bucks. Probably more w/ all the other details like hoses, and other crap. Almost as much as another kit. but it does look damn cool.

If you can get anyone to send you some fire estinguishers and the decals to them from a Nascar model, you could paint them blue and use them. Nice and cheap. I'm going to do this too.
