I really wouldn't mess with sanding if you're just doing the lips. They're already smooth (although a couple of people have complained about ridges??) and if you just strip the paint they should look great. $.02

Maybe go over it with a scrubby pad or steel wool? I can't remember which one, but that was supposed to make it look all purty though. Or maybe a buffer???

Maybe there's just a variance from wheel to wheel...don't know. On mine, under the paint was some beautiful shiney aluminum...no additional work needed after the stripper.

It shouldn't at all.

The only way something would void the warrenty, is if they could prove that whatever mod had direct influence on the cause of the malfunction.

Either that, or letting you or Corey come into direct contact with the bike. The would most certainly void any warranty as well.

polished rims

I would have to say that if you would like just the outside part of the rim done- save yourself tons of time and mess and order wheel striping tape off of e-bay. One guy charges 3 bucks extra for chrome. You could have your look in minutes for $20 and you could also change back no problem if you didn't like the look.

That is not true.

It would only void it if we had something to catch it on fire with.
