Polishing, painting, plating?

A lot of those parts can painted if prepped properly. Also, in terms of the master cylinders, you can paint them in something like caliper paint, which should hold some resistance to brake fluid and can give good coverage. 

CLICKY - follow that link and go down the page to see what mine look like. Tried to copy the image here for you, but it's not showing up unfortunately.

Thanks Jared.  I painted my master cylinders before, but it didn't last.  I didn't use calliper paint though.  After polishing mine I've sent them for zinc plating and will post pictures when I get them back.
