Are you sure it didn't come that way from the dealers?

If there's no dent, there are some products that use touchup paint and rubbing compound to fix it.

Or stop by a body shop and see what they say...

People are so rude - hopefully you can get it looking new again!

are those mobile paint chip fixer guys reliable or would it be better to get a body shop to do it.. the sad thing is that there is only 1 chip on the panel.. i wonder how much it will be to fix it... the chip is not that big..

i might have to pick up touch up paint arghh.. sigh..

I tried a mobile repair person on my 03 G35. I had a decent sized dent from a grocery cart rolling into my rear quarter panel. The guy did OK, but it was still obvious that I had a dent. I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking to totally erase any sign that the chip was there. Body shop would be better, but expensive.
