Looks and feels like the first layer of paint / lacquer has came off , its pretty smooth underneath.

Just wondering what I should do about it to be honest

You could try a local ''smart repair'' company.Don't think that would take much to sort out.

Agreed, or whip it off and drop it in at a body shop won't cost to much.

Don';t use ChipsAway, and use someone like Auto Restore. Although from memory AutoRestore don't/can't smart repair upwards facing panels.
