powder coat or paint rim?

Changing rims yesterday, my gf dropped one of my rims and there's a scratch on it. Should I just get rim fixed or powder coated? The rim was constructed using low pressure casting.

The scratch isn't too bad. But I notice it. There's just little scratches, b/c when it landed, it kinda went in circles like a coin would do when it falls. By the way, they were my 18" OZ If I do paint it or powder coat it, I'd get them in a different color.

She was rolling it up the drive way, while I was inside putting 2 of them away. I guess she pushed a little too hard and it started to wobble and fell over. My cousin decided to buy it and he didn't care for the little scratch so I'm happy now
