Leaking brake caliper onto rim!

So i took the 08 g37 into the dealership several months back. They told me that the brake caliper had leaked all over the interior section (the part not visible on the outside) of my vossen rim. They fixed the caliper and its fine now, but the interior portion of the rim is all black. my question is: how can i get that cleaned? should i ask the dealership to reimburse me if it costs dough to clean the rim?

Typically brake fluid will eat through any protective surface... paint, clearcoat, etc. I highly doubt it can be "cleaned".
