Re: rock chips

Try to get it repaired and then get yourself a clear bra. if not, it will continue to get worse.

Re: rock chips

If the touch up paint doesn't match or cover the chip.....the only other choice is to take it to a good body shop and get an estimate....

My bumper had a chip on it and it would set me back around $475 to blow in the rear of the bumper so it would match...

My car is Ivory Pearl, so if yours is a solid color, it might not be as bad......

Make sure that they can do a perfect repair...so your not stuck with a noticeable repair on your hood.....

Re: rock chips

i think it's around 600 to get a new pre-painted front bumper. I'd recommend investing in the clear bra once you get that done.

Re: rock chips

Depends on where you live. I live in Georgia, the headquarters for another product that seems to have a good following, dynoshield. Although I could have been getting opinions on it from people who don't know their *** from a hole in the ground
