Rim pain scratched, what do i do?

Hi,
I own 2013 C300 w204 with 18in amg alloy wheels. I scraped my front passenger rim on a curb and was wondering how should i proceed on getting this fixed. I'm not sure I should call the mb dealership and ask for a refurbished rim or have them repaint it, or go to a autobody shop that repairs rims, or just buy a new rim online which i have seemed to found i think.
Any suggestions guys, thank you

here's a link i found to a rim i can buy online but it might be for the back rims because there wider.

If money is not a problem I would bring it to a shop. For DIY job, it involves sanding, applying bondo, primer and paint.

MB dealership quoted me $140 to fix bent rims. Considering that's close to what they charge for windshield wiper blades it's not too bad.
