They're aluminum. Yes you can polish them no problem. Without clearcoat you'll have to stay after them. Just polish them when you polish the rest of your bike or re-clearcoat them.

Strip the clearcoat with paint stripper from the hardware store and some 0000 steel wool. I do my polishing by hand with Simichrome polish and a clean rag. Put on some wax to finish up.
