Chips in paint

i do alot of driving to and from school (40 miles there and back), and have got like 10 small chips on my front lip. should i get touch up paint to fix them, because i heard its hard to get it to match.

and what can i do to try and minimize getting them.

Get touch up paint frm the dealership. Closest you'll get to the color. To minimize this you could get a lip mask??? LOL j/p they dont exist i think.

There was a member selling some touch up paint a while back but they came in spray cans. I bought a can and it seems to match better than the dealer paint.

Don't mess with the touch-up paint...it never matches.

I think it was Skillzster who warned me looks not to use it, and I didn't listen...now my bumper looks like crap!
