depends on how far you want to go, you could take the intake etc off, and paint them all separately, and clean the block as best as you can, and paint this too. it's the easiest if you're rebuilding, as you just paint all parts before reassembly, and it all comes up sweet as, just like this

you could also paint or polish the aluminium parts to make it look even better
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
