So is it okay to leave the hundreds of tiny chips on the hood/bumper or should I use touch up pen on it?
If they dont go through paint to metal, dont worry. If they show metal i'd worry because of rust. It'll take a while but it'll be there.

On bumper just apply 2-3 coats of wax and a spray on quik detailer. It'll be easier to clean bugs off of it and also give some resistance to chips.


Don't drive close to others!
