I am sure you can find a professional wheel restoration group in the UK. I would start with your dealer and find out if they have any recommendations. In the meantime you could just touch it up with black paint and it wouldn't be so noticeable.

mask the area with the scratches off, use a 1000 and 1500 grit sand paper to smoothen the rough surfact then take a can of auto paint and spray. make sure you mask the rest of your car and wheel very thoroughly before doing any of this.
it's not going to be perfect but this will save you a lot of $$. if you need a 100% perfect finish then the alternative is to get the entire lip repainted.

Thanks Montreal... I found a place that specialise in this area, they said it will cost me around $65 but the only problem is that they are quite far away and will cost me $200 in shipping costs
