paid $50 to have both of mine stripped. they didnt do a good job, but it allowed me to work them to make them fit better. i'll have them done again before either chrome or paint. just not sure yet.

I'm kind of a penny pincher so I used a couple oF 36 grit rolloc discs. Then 80 on a da then 180. It took a little extra time but got good results.
