I jet hot coated my Vic Jr intake. Matches the polished elbow and parts perfectly. Only thing you have to do is sand it down smooth before you coat it or it will be gray since it doesn't shine until they make it shine after coating it. You can't buff and polish inside the pits of cast aluminum so you have to smooth it out nice. The quality of the finished product will depend on how well it's prepped. If you look at my engine, the lower intake and induction tube coming off the TB are both coated, the elbow is polished. You decide if they match. I forget how much it cost though. One nice thing about jet hot coating vs. polishing. I never have to buff it out. Pretty much just wipe it down, maybe a little mothers once a yr or so but not very often. http://www.geocities.com/skiboyracing/engine.html
