What I did was just put bondo in the chips and buff it out. You can barely notice it unless you actually get up real close.

the touch up paint is around $9-10.

with the touch up paint and buff are you still able to see the damaged area at close look?

i also have some chips on my front bumper and hood, what i'm going to do is go to my friend's body shop and have him respray my front bumper and hood. i think the touch up paint method does not look perfect once it dries. imo
