Not too much... most Electroplaters (chromers) offer a chemical strip & bead polish service, then just find your self a paint shop. Maybe $250 all up?

i havent payed my mate for it yet it mite be Â£40 ish? the paint was a tester that there paint distributor brough in as a sample and they kept a bit when it was taken back so thats how i got the paint for the inlet mani fold its a rainbow sparkel/metal flake and the throttle body was heat resistant paint and i just sprayed glitter spray on to it

the inlet manifold was powder coated then laquered we put heat resistant paint on the throttle body because we didint no if any thing would melt in the oven at 180 degrees
