What should one do about the rock chips in the hood??
I don't know about everyone else, but I get these rock chips in the hood. Not very big, but since the hood is silver under the paint, you can spot it if you look close enough. I have been using the touch-up paint, but it looks like the car has pimples now. I was thinking of eventually having the hood repainted. But then people might think it was in an accident. I don't even live in the country. The roads are paved here! What's the word on the street?

Sux man. I have the same problem. I'm touching it up till it has to be painted. As for the car looking like it was hit, you need to bring it to the right shop. My guy is flawless. Check my website for the work he did on my 69. He's in Mount Vernon 10 mins over the whitestone bridge. Presicione Auto ask for Nick.

there are kits to fix it......and they work well...i am lucky enough to have a guy in my area who charges 40 bucks, plus 2 bucks per chip...honestly he is unreal..you cant even tell where they were when he is done.....it is absolutelty perfect...no pimples, no color diff.

I loved the bra on my 96 taurus...but i agree...it effectively scratched up the paint behind it and held filth. Never once considered it on this maxima...#1 reason being this car has much too busy of a front end for a bra to look good..My chips are there but arent that bad...stay away from dump trucks and aviod following close are my ways to keep the front nice. I aint paying $300+ to get a clearbra installed...this isnt a frickin ferrari. lol

the new lexus SUV's (rx only i think not sure) have a scotchgard covering, kinda like that stuff thats always on new shiny stuff thats so damn fun to peel off, but it doesnt come off. perfectly clear not noticable from more than 2 feet, and works perfectly. someone should look into this, ill talk to my manager at lexus and see if its a universal app or not
