$60 per piece.

That is about how much you will have to pay to replace each of these pieces. There is a KIT here you can buy from AnythingScout.

I choose some Black and Red paint. I am trying Testors Model Paint and got them both on amazon.

I used a wire wheel on a drill to remove all the old paint remnants. Once I had them all down to bare metal, I started painting.
