Honestly, unless you have some serious mods I would stick with the stock one, its a pretty decent piece and the gains from changing are small and the cost is huge.

im not looking into getting big HP gains from it, im just looking into puttin some chrome underneath the hood. Is there another way to put some chrome underneat the hood without replacing the parts?

You could kill two birds with one stone by getting some chromed parts that will buy you some HP. Take a look at plenums, for example.

Your best bet man is the P-51 Intake Manifold. Its expensve, but you could paint it. Ive seen one before red and black it looked awsome. And the EGR and IAC Valves are relocated under the P-51 Intake manifold so it cleans up the engine bay a good amount. Then Im pretty sure the Throttle body goes right into the P-51 no upper plenum needed.
