I’ve used Rich’s Rim Repair a couple times for curb rash. Price very fair and results excellent. I am not sure about that gouge, however. Can’t hurt to text him a picture and see what he says. Will PM the number. Also you’ll need to verify that he travels down to Long Beach.

I'd leave it. Not much of a mark.

if your rim is all one color, go for it. if its that smoked factory tint, I would not. they are impossible to match

For mobile repair I would try OC Wheel Recon. He has fixed a few wheels at our shop before and they turned out good.
