Tire scrapped

Today I went to the gym that I usually don't go to. I regret that. When I wa leaving I managed to scrap the rim a bit and damage my run flat tire. There is a piece of rubber just coming off almost. It held by both sides. But in the middle it shows a bit inside. There are no threads just black tire inside. The piece that's hanging still cover the part that can be exposed. What should I do?

Thank you for your help guys, and sorry that my post above was written with so many mistakes. I was using my phone at work and was in a hurry.

I had a mechanic check out the tire, and he said just detail the rims, and dont worry about the tire. He said its just a deeper graze than usually and its fine to drive. No need to change. Made my day since it was a new tire and didnt wanna pay 500 bucks for another one.
