dunno how he did it but all you need is 2000 grit sand paper, metal polished, and alot of elbow grease. my friend took his stock BMW M3 wheels and polished the lips. took him about 5 hours per wheel and the finished product was total bling bling. wet sand the area first then use the metal polish to get rid of the sandpaper marks.

Nah i didnt take it somewhere.. Straight DIY with different grits of sandpaper.. Dry sand with 1000, 1500, 2000 and then wet sand with 2000 or higher.. Then polish with Mother Mag Aluminum Polish..
