Bent Aero Rim - Repair or Replace?

I Hit a pothole and bent 2 of my 17" aero rims this morning. The front rim damage is minor, but I'm concerned with the bend in the rear rim.
I've been checking the tire pressure and there's no air leakage, but I don't want to drive around with the rim in the condition it's in.
Does anybody have experience with alloy rim repair and know the approximate cost per wheel?
Should I repair or should I just buy a replacement wheel on the 'bay for around $130.
Take a look at the photo below and let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance.
