I think about the only good way to do it would be polishing compound and a rag, do it by hand so that you don't buildup alot of heat on it with a Dremel or something. I've considered doing mine as well but havent had the time. I think it would look pretty good. Where did you mount your PCM at?

The PCM is already made to be weatherproof and to take quite a beating being under the hood, start sanding with some fine paper, even wetsanding, then get out a buffing wheel & drill.
