Default Stock Rim Refinishing/Resurfacing?

Did a little bit of searching and did not come up with much. Does anyone have any info on refinishing/resurfacing the stock gunmetal rims? My rims are not bent or curbed they have just taken a lot of rocks and all have numerous rock chips. I'd like to just have them fixed rather than look for another set. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

try looking for a shop near you that does powdercoating, or search online

Just take them to a body shop, give them the OEM gunmetal wheel paint code (can be found via searching) and ask them to paint them.

Should only be a couple hundred dollars. Definitely cheaper than a new set of wheels.
