Default Curb rash repair

I know I've brought this up before, but I just don't want to ruin my stock rims anymore than they are by trying to fix it myself. I need to know if there is a shop near Long Beach where I can have my rims fixed cause it's just so damn tacky to have rash on all but 1 rim. I was about to have them painted black to hide the rash but I think it will still be noticable, and plus I like the stock color. Any suggestions?

Bolton's Classic Wheels in Torrance, they do great work for less than $50 for the curb rash, depending on how large yours is

$120 per wheel for most repairs is what he quoted me..if he has to take the wheel apart its probably going to be $150-160

for $300 you get all 4 wheels powdercoated, any color you want? I would never pay that much to fix curb rash...
