What did the shop do to get them that clean? i can understand polishing but they must have stripped them down. I can get the same set of wheels at work for 400 bucks, but i hate the silver look. How in the world did they pull of a polished billet look on those????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was just going to say "resurfacing" is just sanding down the wheel to get any improfections (gouges/scratches) off. Probably used a DA sander or similar to get the surface as smooth as can be before polishing.
