Question Turbo Dress Up

I am in the process of dressing up my engine and was wondering if anyone had any good ideas to dress up the turbo. I know the 86-87's have a turbo shield to hide the rusty looking turbo. I have tried high temp. grill paint. I don't think it looks that great but it is better than the rusty color. Also, has anyone tried to polish the factory braided uppipe/downpipes. Any ideas??

Jet hot or any ceramic-metallic coating looks good on the turbine housing.
