It will be easier if you mask them off before painting (you can then even polish theem before painting), but basically you might want to start with 400 wet-or-dry and work your way up to 1000 or so and use some mag polish to finish the shine - not hard & fast rules, just general polishing suggestions. If it's off the car, you could always use a buffer to shine them up. I have also seen some overlays that are like chrome vinyl which have adhesive backing and they stick to the fins and make them real bright.

You could always join the Marine Corps. They will teach you to shine stuff like garbage cans, cannon shells, floors, shoes, and other assorted brightwork.

Marines ain't the Army, son, and they'll square your sorry ass away about polishing gear, just like they did me
