Yes, Good shops can refurbish the wheels. My friend just did it on his AMG wheels and they look as good as new. It probably would cost you around $150.00 per wheels.
Some shops take your wheel and send it outside. Look for a shop that can do the work on location ("Wheel Tech" is where my friend did his. I am not sure if they have them back east or not.

Back East . . . I haven't heard that expression in a long time; it's a great one.

There are two shops that will do it. One in Hollywood and one in Pennsylvania.

http://www.truewheel.com

http://www.wheelcollision.com

Both have good reputations. I have a small outer edge scrape on my rear wheel (parallel parking) and was quoted about $90 to have it fixed by truewheel here in SoCal.
