Ok need the lettering to be shiny, i heard people usually get about 0.5mm shaved off the top of the lettering. Was wondering if anyone knows a company that will do it, maybe i could send it away to get done?

I'd advise a sanding block as well mate, it wont touch the powdercoat as long as your not cack-handed like me haha
