You could try powdercoating them. A buddy of mine got a really cheap powder coater (i want to say $50) from sears, and it's pretty impressive what it can do. He powdercoated a toolbox for his truck with it. I'll try to get some pics.

I though this was for metal surfaces ... the Fuel Rail Covers are a hard plastic but wont be able to handle an oven .... I got the GTO one's ... They are AWESOME !!!!!! I will post some pic of them this week when I get a chance ...

I worked with the checkeredflagstore to get the trimming done along with taking off the corvette and the first coat of black.
Then I finished with the stripping the emblem and the rest of the paint and clear.
Total project was around 2 bills.
