I bought a set of headers on Ebay and I thought I'd have some fun with them....turn them pitch black...and I guess that means getting the chrome off first....

There are some high temperature ceramic-based spray paints on the market that will adhere to chrome, so you shouldn't need to strip the chrome to use them.
I'd suggest that you use something like "Blue Away" to clean the chrome and rough the surface slightly followed by a wash with acetone to remove any oily material.
You might also want to clean the inside of the pipes for the first foot or two from the engine and coat the inside with high-temp paint also. That will provide some insulation on the hottest part of the pipes.
