paint chip

two months and my baby has a paint chip in the rear right door

im so pissed, looks like some mofo was getting out of his car too fast and hit it with his breifcase or something, i can see the metal. when i find out who it is, im gonna beat the living **** out of the ****er. TWO months! ive taken such good care of it, and i just washed/waxed it a few days ago

its not big at all, but very noticeable (to me) what can i do about it? i dont know if the touch up paint will match the noble green properly

i hear your pain man. 1 month after i got my car, on the freeway, saw a stone flying towards my car, "pop", chipped the side of my hood......... luckily mine is NBP and the touchup paint is working fine.

you might wanna first try the touch up paint at places where you can't see (under the bumper or so) to see how it matches the oem paint before putting it on your door.

I feel for you man! About a 2 weeks into the life of my car i got a ding in the side door b/c of some MF that didnt look while he opening the door. The factory touch up paint took care of the ding, but that first scratch always stays with you forever!
