was a bit job polishing the rims yourself mate, was thinking about doing my rocker cover.
to be honest matey, it wasnt that hard as there wasnt any irregular shapes and corners, i was thinking of doing some similar polishing jobs on and around my engine bay!
some top tips for a low budget polish shine like mine
get a good drill
get loads of wet and dry _ all grades 240-1200!
look on fleebay for some polishing compound kits with the polishing heads inc.
have a steady hand ont he drill other wise you will take chunks out of the metal :s
then autosol (but you dont have to)...
hope that helps
