Touch up paint and a toothpick.
Richard is the master of this, I remember his post about his IS300.
There is also that 3M film that you can put over your the front of your car, I have talked with a couple of my friends in the mainland about it, they said it works well. Just that the film will eventually turn to a slightly yellowish brown transparent color, because of the sun. With the amount of sun we get here it could accelerate it.

I also talked to 3M guys. They said it won't fade or yellow if you take care of it. Which mean washing and waxing. There are only about 3 guys that apply it here in hawaii. They didn't inspire confidence in me when I asked them technical questions. A distributor in the mainland told me that I could install it myself if I liked problem solving and was a patient person.
You'll get most of the chips from the god damn freeway! Thing is so littered with sh^t and they never clean it.

That look really good man. My question is once you wet and place the film can to reposition it, or move it around?

The film won't slide around but you can lift and reposition it many times over as long as you keep it really wet. It sort of sticks like saran wrap sticks to a bowl. Not sure how else to describe it. It is tricky to do no doubt, but I couldn't find anyplace to have it done
