Paint chips? What paint chips?
Before....
1 day later...
I used the DIY chip repair off this site, as you can see... It works wonders. I fixed the 2 chips caused by the stones that were kicked up by a construction truck that hit the panel behind the driver side door. It was more for rust prevention, but it looks better now with out the chips.

Rep Power: 425 Yes... I know you can still sort of see them... It's because the touch up and the car paint aren't exactly a match.

Rep Power: 0 Seeing as Honda has a life-time guarentee against rust, I would have let them rust! haha, because in like 5 years when the rust is pretty noticable, chances are the paint will be pretty faded on the car too, so Honda would have to paint the hole car all over again.... just a thought, all in all, I would have probably done the same thing as you!

Rep Power: 425 It looks like the paint has either cured a little more, or the lighting in my garage was bad last night, but in the sun this morning, I was trying really hard to find the spots. They look much better now and are basically invisible.
