Rim Repair - Help!

I have an 01 CL Type S with stock rims. Because they stick out and have brushed up against the curbs (not by me, but the previous owner), there are some scuff marks on the rims. Any recommendations as to how I might (affordably) repair them? And getting new OEM or aftermarket rims is not an option for me. Thanks!

I would try your local car dealersips. My regular acura dealer parts dept. was very helpful. All dealerships have "Previously owned" cars for sale so they use wheel repair services. Also body/custom shops use them. But a parts manager will be more helpful I think. I just had a wheel repaired. I only did it because one wheel was bad.... I ran off the road. Anyway mine cost 125$ because there was a deep scratch going across the face of the wheel. now the wheel looks great due to the polish and new clear coat and you can barely see where the scratch was. from estimates I saw with mine. They are charging anywhere from 50-75$ for a strip/polish/clearcoat to 125-150$ if more work is required. I know you want to stay stock but if not for the fact that I only had one really bad wheel I would be all over the 18'' ronjon servo silver finish.
