Unhappy Scratched My Rim - SF Bay Area Help Needed

Well, like the title says, I scratched my rim yesterday afternoon , my first scratch since I got my FX, I can't describe my frustration since it was my fault and I have always babied my FX.

I got too close to a curb and the right front tire and rim paid the price. The tire is fine but the rim has a very deep scratch, it took a very small portion of the rim actually. After inspecting the rim I know it can be fixed.

Does anyone know a reputable rim shop in the SF Bay Area? I want my rim to look like it was not scratched. I went to the dealer and asked the sales person if they had a preferred vendor and the answer was no, he said to check with the service technician but he was gone for the day.

Any help will be greatly appreciated - Thanks
