try to touch it up yourself you will be surprised at what you can do.

If you're not happy with it then consider your other options. Not to mention you can make it look 90% better in about 2 hours this evening and 98% better with another 1-2 hours on it.

I had something similar happen to my matte gunmetal TSW nurburgring this past weekend in nola. I guess that's what I get for letting a friend drive my car. For a day. Won't make that mistake again!

I've used AWRS (www.awrswheelrepair.com) in the past. I rashed one of my 2011 Brembo GT wheels. They're a mobile service, and fixed it right in the parking lot while I was at work. Couldn't even see that it had been repaired.

Now, granted, mine was no where near the level of the pic you posted earlier. Shoot them over that same photo, and see if they think it's repairable.

I have 1 wheel on my SHO that got nicked...twice....but you can't see it unless you are looking for it.  those pictures hurt. 

I have 2 cars, the SHO and Xsport with those wheels.  I cringe every time my wife drives either car.

Well, most places locally say that for ~150 they should be able to polish them out and make it look about 90-95%, but unable to match the factory finish as the rim would need to be put on a lathe for machine tool marks.

One place so far says that they can ship it to their plant and put it on the lathe and it would be ~185.

An expensive oops for sure, but beats ~450 for a refurb rim or ~750 for a new factory rim
