touch up paint?

Hello fellow Socal G's

I just found a spot on my front bumper where the paint chipped off a little bit, I'm looking to do one of the following

1) Find touch up paint and patch it up (Obsidian Black), then use clera nail polish to clear coat it

2) Get a Poly bumper and sell the sports bumper I have right now

My question is, does anyone have OB touch up paint near where I live? (Chino Hills,Diamond bar, Walnut, Rowland area) I can just pay you like a few bucks and use it, so we both can save money, instead of me driving all the way to infiniti, or having to order it online. It would be GREATLY APPRECIATED. It also wouldn't hurt to meet a fellow G enthusiast.

My second question is, since no one likes a TESTING WATER thread, what is a fair price to ask for my sports bumper, it is pretty much mint except for that chip, I wanna know whether swapping for a new bumper is a good financial decision for me.


Any comments would be appreciated!

thanks

Kevin

It's 8$ at most local infiniti/nissan dealerships, give it a shot! Goodluck touching up your paint!

You can get clearcoat paint for just a couple bucks. I have bought them along with paint on http://www.touchuppaintonline.com. I am pretty sure they are different than nail polish and you might as well do it right with real clearcoat, putting nail polish on a car just doesn't sound like a good idea.
