Default now its the damn vinyl

I swear I searched for a thread dealing with this but I could not find any.

I just noticed several small rock chips on my white vinly stripes. What is the best way to "touch-up" the little holes ???

not sure to be honest, but this might work
better than applying new stripe material over the
holes....

Until the paint chips, then you have a bigger problem.

I have a few small holes in my vinyl from rocks, but they are hardly noticeable next to the giant rock chip in the paint between the stripes. I personally wouldn't spend the money on any kind of custom paint if you drive your car every day.

If your car isn't a DD then paint away!

Precisely.

Be happy you have chips in the vinyl (not your factory paint) simply replace that section of vinyl when it's banged up more than you can stand. (Get a couple spares of the sections prone to chipping; you can replace yourself with a little know how.)

Maybe now you'll see the wisdom in using a bra!
