Damaged my front diver's side wheel today **PICS**
I wish I could blame the wife, but alas, I cannot. I hit a high curb at low speed in a drive through today. The sound was awful, just awful. Should be around $200 to get fixed.

I swear some of these drive thru's here in Ca are like navigating a miniature golf course hole.

I feel for ya.
I drove an F150 for the last 20+ years and curbs did not mean anything.
First week I had the Mustang and I did the exact same thing as you at Dairy Queen. Hopefully I have my depth perception down now.
Cost $150 to fix it at Wheels of America.

That's not too bad, but it still hurts. You should be looking at about $150 to fix, depending on what the going rate in your area is. I just had a Volk with MUCH worse damage fixed for $125.

If those are the 07 GT500 wheels, you can pick up a new one for somewhere between $150-$200.
It might be worth shopping around a bit before deciding to fix it (especially if it will run you the same cost as a new one).

I plan on calling the dealership tomorrow, and a few other wheel re-finishing places as well.

Dealership wants $575 per wheel

This is a genuine Ford wheel...should match yours and will come with an SVT center cap....pretty decent price considering what your dealer is asking. Free shipping too!

Looks good, but I am in Canada. Shipping and customs would kill that deal. I can probably have it fixed for under $200 and look as good as new.
