no... there is no touch up. Hit up MagMasters, they do a great job. I think they quoted me 150 for rechrome.

Sorry to hear that, Steven! I believe this was 12 years ago when I had mine done somewhere in the City of Orange...sorry I couldn't remember the name. But this would be an option if you didn't want to drive to LA.
