Curb rash, where can i get it fixed?

I might be picking up (cheap) a set of Black Bullitt 18' rims that I found but they all have some curb rash I was told. Is there someplace I can take themthat can clean them up? And how much do you think it'd run me? Thanks a lot, Tyler

Unless you do it yourself you will
probably pay from $50 to $100 a piece

on bullitt wheels there is a lip that sticks out a bit.

in order to remove curb rash this lip has to be machined down a bit.

IMO the wheels dont look as good after they are "repaired".

You said "do it yourself"... but I'm curious to know, how would one go about doing such? I have a set of FR500's that I would like to refinish/get rid of curb rash but have no idea of how to do it. Only thing I could think of would be to sand it down and re polish it...? But wouldn't you have to worry about it rusting then?
