Wanted to update my old thread in case anyone finds it in the future...
I found a guy that does wheel repair & refinish work for car dealers. Met up with him at a local dealer about a week ago. It took him all of 15 minutes and $50 to repair the rash. Did a great job, wheel looks brand-new again.
If anyone in the Springfield, IL area needs a guy to repair a wheel, PM me and I'll send you his info.
