Ugh... Curb Rash - Anything I Can Do?

It had to happen. I have had my 05 6MT coupe for two months and have managed to avoid any door dings, scratches, etc... up until now. I parallel parked yesterday and curb rashed my wheel. I think I know the answer to this, but is there anything I can do to lessen the damaged apparence? If it makes any difference I have the stock 19's.

Yeah, I mashed both of my OEM 19" rims on the passenger side, 2 weeks after I got my G. I'll take it back to the dealer and get loaner rims and tires while they send my rims out for repair. They said the cost would be $135 ea.

Now, I am extremely careful when pulling up to cubs.
