Default Repaint?

I was looking at my car and since its my DD, it gets hit with everything on the road

After looking at this pic, do you think its best to touch up, or to repaint? How much would either one cost? Is it worth it cause it may happen again?

If its your DD then touch it up, unless you want to get it repainted and get a clear bra for it.

Yeah, just touch it up.... It's going to happen again, and how many times are you willing to repaint it because of a couple of rock chips??

Next tuesday I am going in for a buff job at a local shop, with chip repair. They were pretty confident they could fix almost everything that was wrong, and all for 200 bucks. It think thats a heck of a deal, triple buff and wax and touchup.

I will let ya know how the results are.
