you could try using touch up.....

Depends on how much you want to spend repairing it ,a body shop will want to paint the whole bumper.

some of the dent removal firms can do stone chips and scratches

Try a bit of ScratchX to see if that will avoid the trip to the body shop.

I think with the likes of ChipsAway etc ,it depends on who comes to do it.

Ideally you need to see some of there work.

I'm sure if you post the area your in someone on hear will be able to say if ChipsAway are any good in your area
