Default Touch up yes...

I have found it very easy to do this.
Take a sawing niddle and dip it in the touch up paint. Slowly Fill the chip area. let the paint drip of the deddle.
Let it dry, then use the clear coat,(use the same method) as with the paint...
U will never know u had a rock chip.

Default You can get a touchup kit from the dealership....

it comes with paint and clearcoat. I believe www.carecareonline.com had some good instructions on how to fill it in...just be careful and patient and it should look fine

i think this was it:<ul><li><a href="http://www.carcareonline.com/paint_chips.htm">http://www.carcareonline.com/paint_chips.htm</a</li></ul>

Default "Sawing niddle"? "Deddle"?

These must be hard-to-find car detailing tools or something, huh?

:-p
