Get a load of bin bags, set em on fire, wait for the thick black smoke to bellow out.

Hod bars in the smoke for a few mins untill you reach the desired colour, then a liberal spray of hair spray to seal the colour in....

Thats how we were taught to do it in Nam

i'll tell u a really cheap method that works..but won't match the f/f

rear car lens tint that u spray on.

apart from that just strip the old paint off and take forks along with chrome bars
to a good spray shop...theyll match it pretty good.
