imma start making her wear a bra when she goes topless on long trips on the highway. it would be wise so rocks dont hit her there nor do bugs

Ya i got the same problem. But there going to get chip if u drive em. aint no fun letting them sit in the garage. all u can do is try to keep them nice as u can. I have a black 03 GT that i keep spottless and for the most part avoids bad weather if i can help it. I found that using a black sharpie to touch up little (key word little, like very small stone chips) chips. Looks good to alot better than touch up paint. So if i was u i would go see if i could find a color that matches your car. Just remember small chips though, LOL.

the 3m clear bra is really cool. You can't see it unless you are really looking for. Then all you can see is a faint line. Plus they are pre-cut for the car, so they fit perfect. I would buy it for mine if it were newer, but no real sense in it now. I'll see if i can find my friend on the formula forum that sells it.

Just get some touch up paint from Ford and use that. Then clay bar the front after a few days and give it a few coats of wax. Should help to blend the paint in. That should work. If not, bite the bullet and get a new hood. Then use the 3M clear bra or whichever.
