First Paint Chip - Opinions on cost and/or difficulty of repair

Got my first paint chips from some road debris thrown up by a car in the adjacent lane of the south 15 today. Any input on the cost/difficulty of repair on this? Passenger side door/Front Passenger Fender boundary.

Head on over to a subaru or scion dealership and get a bottle of touch up paint or touch up pen. You'll get more stone chips in the future, so best to just touch it up, prevent the rust and let it go. Make sure to clean it before applying the touch up paint with some rubbing alcohol. And with touch up paint, less is always more!
