Hit a Pothole, rim lip slightly bent.

Driving the other day, I hit a pothole, and now my aluminum rim lip is slightly bent outwards, and the rubber has a lump sticking out of it.

Does anyone know where i can get this fixed, and how much? Is is also possible that the rim might crack if they try and bend it back??

Thanks.
