curb rash repairable?

[bcfromfl]

Hey everyone --

I'm shopping for a newer Nismo, and found a nice one...except...it has a small amount of rash on one wheel, maybe a couple inches or so. I'm anal about this kind of thing, although the rest of the car is pristine and low mileage and otherwise would be a good deal. The salesman said they have a "wheel guy" they call upon to fix problems like this. I'd never heard of this, although, I know some manufacturers put a plastic coating on some wheels to protect the alloy and keep it glossy, in which case, any repair would be less-than-satisfactory.

Have you ever heard of a "repair" such as this? Thanks!
