If you want to do it yourself -

Sand the damage with wet/dry sandpaper - start with 400 then work up to 1500 grit. You may need a little finishing putty as well. Lightly prime it with primer. Then use a can of BMW Touch up paint in the right paint code. Mask the area off and don't overspray - a few light coats is best. Then cut polish it in. It won't be perfect, however it is down low and won't be that noticeable (except by you since you know it is there and it will always catch your eye).

This repair will cost less than $75, and will take a few hours over a weekend, allowing for drying and curing time.

The other option is to have it done at a shop.
