That way it can't look like a dent still as it might if you use the clear to fill it on top of a layer of white.
Did you get it from the dealer?
yeah, im going to buy some from the dealer on monday. Then go to my mechanic who is a good friend of mine to help me apply it. I will post before and after pics when i am done, the bigger one will take longer because i have to get the dent removed first.

Is it me, or does it seem the paint on these chip pretty easy?
The my first week driving it to work and back got me two pretty nice size chips in the front.. The dealer scheduled my clear bra install two weeks after I picked the car up (they've been pretty busy)

I had a small rock about 20mm across hit my bonnet from the opposite direction while I was doing over 100kph which dented[small] the alloy bonnet and put 3 small small scratches in the paint. It was a loud hit but it didn't chip the paint.
