Its a small 2" curb mark, repair will be approx £30, not willing to spend £200+ on new wheel and tyre for such minor damage, im just after somewhere to repair it. im not made of money unfortunately.

Hi mate , have a look here.
Spit And Polish
They do a mint job. and only charge £30 or so. with only a small cost for parcel costs. just make sure you box up well to send and your wheel will come back like new.
I know someone who has used them for new 20" focus ST wheels.
And he is fussy

let me know how you go on
