Ideas on how to clean up outer grille?

How can I clean up the metal on the outer grilles? I don't really have the funds to buy another one so I want to try to clean mine up? New Paint, etc?

I am working on one for my blazer.Used oven cleaner to strip off the old anodizing.It was in good shape so I sanded the stripped aluminum with600 wet/drypaper.Then 800,1000,and 1500.use them wet with a few drops of soap in the water.I then polished the grill with aluminum polish.I prefer Busches,but mothers and others are good to.
