Do it yourself --CURB RASH REPAIR
Thought I share this article on how to repair minor curb rashed wheels. The weird thing is I found this link while surfing the toyota sienna forum.

In the case of raw metal that's unpainted (in this case aluminum) once it's gone from a gash etc. it's gone, all you can do is file down the rash and shape it smooth then use emory cloth & wetsandpaper to smooth it then buff it out via machine. It can look perfectly shiny and new as before, but you can't do much about the fact it will be a different size lip in that area, than before. You could ostensibly hide it to the eye if you file out far enough to the good parts of the lip, but that's about it.
It's also a lot of work, but considering what some of those types of rims cost, it would be a worthwhile day of work IMO.
