Default 2006 Sportster Speedo bracket/bezel...

Hello guys, can someone tell if the black speedo bezel on a 2006 XL883 can be replaced with a chrome one? I will certainly appreciate your help and comments regarding this question. Second, I noticed that my son's Sporty kickstand feels kinda loose and NOT tight! Any suggestion in order to make this kickstand more tight/secure feeling? Thank you all in advance for your comments and suggestions!
Best regards,
Vickon

1: Bezel should be a straight swap
2: Get a new spring for the kickstand, they loosen up over time. Cheap easy fix
