Paint help

so I haven't been driving a lot lately and as I got out of my car today I noticed maybe around 10 small rock chips on my hood. my question is, is a respray the only way to really fix this? and are those 3m clear bras worth it? anyways I'll post some pics of the chips

Word is that the Nissan/Infiniti paint is not that great...my front bumper is full of chips.
I plan on getting a full paint done plus the clear bra all the way to the doors...worth it in my book.
You can try touch up paint but hard to fill those small spaces without being noticeable.

okay. so basically the only thing I can really do for now is a good wash/wax/buff and once I've had it with the chips get a respray for the hood/possibly bumper and then the bra ?

stop driving so close to the car in front of u. personally i would stay away from clear bras. they look like **** after awhile and i can only imagine how much of a bitch it is to remove in the future

The paint does seem pretty thin on these cars. Keep your distance from the car in-front and wash/wax/buff.
