Wheel repair in DFW?

I scraped one of my Champion RG5s on a curb and wanted to get the rash fixed. Is there a good/reputable shop in Dallas anyone can recommend for fixing?

How bad? You got pics? I rashed an RG5 and I fixed myself with 220 grit sanding, followed by 400, 600, 1000, then Mother's Mag Polish. Can't tell AT ALL.

220 grit sanding, like from home depot? does that work with aluminum? my scrape went a little into the aluminum so i'm thinking it may take a pro shoppe. i'll take a pic so you can see what it looks like.
