Chipping wheel paint

I have a 2017 SR with the "Midnight Black" wheels, although it's more like a dark gray. The front driver's side wheel paint is chipping/flaking off in multiple spots and it seems like it's only a matter of time before it starts to look ridiculous. How much of a pain is it going to be to get that repainted, if it's even possible? I've never had to bother with this before.

My wheels aren’t painted and are turned (2018 SV) but came to me with curb rash, plus some I inflicted upon them. We have mobile wheel repairmen where I live. He made all four very close to perfect in less than two hours at a good price. He initially balked at repairing non-painted wheels and said that painted wheels are much easier to get perfect.

Curious what you paid for each wheel if you don't mind.
