I was going to polish everything, but after starting on the compressor housing, I gave up and decided to just paint everything. It's a whole lot easier, and your arm doesn't hurt when you're done.

What about just the UIM/LIM, compressor housing, heat shield, alternator, and radiator? Is that overkill?
but all polished manifolds, housings,front cover,alt,pulleys,ic piping, etc is...
i just have a polished UIM, painted LIM, ...polished compressor housing and the rest is aluminum that just looks nice ....
I just dont get polishing an engine bay to the max when the car is driven on the street ...
