help...chipped paint from rock on my 07 camry se

[obeythelaw]

I am in need of advice. My 1 month old metallic blue 07 Camry SE V6 has a chipped paint on the front hood. Its not one of those "superficial" chips either. It's a about a quarter inch wide and I can see some type of plastic clear material underneath the chip. My concern is that this can lead to rust. Should I bring it to Toyota and see if they can work on that for me. Will they charge me a lot? Will they be able to touch up just that spot?

welcome to the club mate. you can expect more to come too. that sounds like down to the base primer. you can do it yourself, search here and also the web on how to fix paint chips... cheaper to do it yourself. step by step process, clean it , prime it, paint it, etc.... you can do it grasshopper. i have done around 10 chips on my car thus far too. good luck

I have the same thing. Once I get the chips (more than one of them from that f-in dump truck), I am getting a clear bra.
