Won't be your last rock chip. Assuming it's fairly small, go to the dealer and get the Touch Up pen for your color. It's got a "pen" side and a brush side. They work pretty well.

this is what i do..
1. scuff it with sand paper a little bit.
2. clean off the area ( make sure bare metal is showing and should be no rust as well)
3. Dab a little of the touch up paint.
4. make sure its a thick layer. (over the original paint)
5. wait to dry and sand it down with high grit. ( redo this twice if you need to)
6. buff out with PC7424 with a good chemical (prefer m105 and m205)
7. sit back and have a beer to see the results.
Final Results ( not 100% correction but close.)

Wow, those last 2 pics look very good!
The best I could do on my chip repair is more like your 3rd pic from the last.
What did you do to the chip between the 3rd pic and the last pic?
Was it just more buffing with the PC?
