Wouldnt you know it. my car is only a couple weeks old and I already have a rock chip. It is in the passenger side front door.. I asked the dealer if they could take care of it.. They just dabbed a little paint in.. Still VERY noticable.. I found a couple things online to fix chips... Any advise?????

The dealership I bought my car from offers a paint protection agreement. $699.

They already fixed a scratch on the hood for me.

Many times the dealership I work at has taken care of things like that for customers who have just bought their car within a month. I call it customer care. This is a small dealership and it is geared towards the customer more than the bigger ones seem to be.

well that is what they did sort of.. they just filled it in with a little bit of paint... but the chip is still there and very obvious..

according to body-man buddy, a clear coat can't really be fixed unless you do the whole panel, just covered....personally i have a little 1/2" door ding & the dealer recomended magic marker

Magic marker? Not worth the hassle...first rain or wash and your doing it all over again.

Personally I try my hardest to keep rocks and other cars away from mine. Once you get that first one then its game on. So I freeze in the winter parking way out for about a year or so...then I get a ding and I'll park close.

If I have to park between 2 cars, I make it the nicest 2 I can find. And if I have to park closer to one than the other its the nicest one. I figure they don't want to ding up their car either! lol
