Not sure where you can find the real OEM ones but americanmuscle sells the OEM style ones. Just know that the color is known to be slightly darker than the OEM ones but it's very subtle I heard. Ebay and forum classifieds like on here I guess if you can find someone selling them.

Lol +1 on saving up for new wheels. Its just a bit of curb rash on 1 wheel. Not a HUGE deal. Especially if you are broke.

curbs are so gay haha. I did the same thing with one of my stock bullit rims. Took a chunk of the rubber with it too. pretty much made me sick for 2 days or so, i couldn't stop thinking about it. I'm sure you feel the same way. IMO don't waste your time trying to track down an oem rim, save the cash even if it takes you 6 months to get something better.

Get some curb feelers!
Seriously, look on ebay and a few other forums that have a decent classified section

I vote for buying 2 deep dish for the rear and using 2 of the other good 3 up front!
