It ended up leaving about 6 or 7 little chips. What would you recommend I do. I am scared to paint the hood of a brand new black car, but the way it looks now is totally unacceptable to me. I live in Las Vegas and good body shops are impossible to find here as with most places. Would you all recommend painting the entire hood or do I have an alternative?

Default 6 or 7 chips from a pine cone? If you get a rock chip, you might have to claim it as a total loss.
