1. Is it even worth it to fix them
2. Does anyone know of a good shop that can repair and powder coat my wheels (shipped to and from since Madison sucks *** for car services)
Hell yeah it is! Check my before and after pics. Search for Son Tran. Mine look brand new!

Google: Bondo wheel repair.
No man...don't do all that. Find a good, I'm mean really good mobile repair guy...the kind that works on high-end cars. Two Nismo Rims with Rash + 1 hour at the location of my choice (in this case work) + $150 + Son Tran = brand new freaking Nismo Rims. I challenge anyone to find the rash on my rims. Search Son Tran Cuban on the forum for before and after pics. I'd post them but I'm traveling.

Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists | The World's Largest Mobile Wheel Repair Company

Follow the link and click on locations and see if there is a guy near you and he will go to you. The guy that we use at the dealership I work at is awesome. And it's pretty cheap. They can match pretty much any painted finish.
