Side Skirt Scratched, plastic peeled... help

So, I read one thread on a scratched plastic trim, but the resolution was to replace it... the side skirt (cooper s R56, non jcw), is a bit more expensive to replace @ ~250+shipping...

pulling out of a space with a hidden island curb... ripped off mudflap, jack point and scuffed up the lower half of my plastic trim about half the length of the trim =\

some parts are scuffs, others are finger nail deep peel'd pieces of plastic....
is there a way to mask these or to minimize its ugliness?? any tips?

i dont want to sand as i think it'll just mess up the finish of the trim and it'll look obvious that its been attempted at hiding...

any suggestions would be appreciated... thanks!

i've got black wow on the trim already, but i dont think thats going to do much hiding the deep scratches
