I would get one powdercoated "almost chrome". It would not require polishing like polished aluminum does. The water pump is too hard to access to polish regularly. IMHO. The powdercoating would be shiney as hell all the time and would repel dirt and grime very well. The smoother you can get the pump before getting it coated... the better it will look.

I like my CSI water pump! It's electric so you'll pay some change for it. They have them in silver, red and blue.
