Just done the same thing. Gutted.
Took the wheel to this lot:

And £144 later and you can't tell where the original mark was.

Never heard of them but they seem to do good work. I am near Cannock and last time I needed wheels doing went to Prestige in Birmingham.
The wheel specialist in Wolver looks good though they have a Facebook page, let us know how you get on .

+1 for The Wheel Specialist. Had my 20s done there and the finish is flawless:

Shame I sold my A5 and no longer need these!

Birmingham Audi did mine for £75, that's a full face re furb, very nice job too.
£144 seems a bit on the high side. Worth noting these wheels can only be repaired couple of times before compromising rim.
Popped into JP Alloys for a chat this afternoon. Had the whole repair process explained, very knowledgeable. Gonna get the wheel to them next week for the refurb. Asked about a colour change and told I could have any colour I wanted in with the refurb if I wanted to, although with the diamond cut style rims, the number of refurbs/colour changes is limited. Was thinking of switching the titanium colour to gloss black.
Ask about durability though on the gloss black. I read Audi engineer claimed the titanium finish is more durable from stone chips etc.
Reckon I'll go gloss black when the wheels are a bit older (and in need of another refurb probably). Just going for a 'factory' look refurb on the one wheel just now. We talked about where the factory clear coat is already flaking a little just inside the bolt holes.
