[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 15524200, member: 6727"] A 2" chip is huge, and as others have said, you're not going to make it look much better by trying to apply a touch-up patch. I had a fair sized chip (about 1") on my old '14 Mini Cooper's hood. A local body shop tried to touch it up. It did NOT look any better after. I ended up having the hood re-painted and was very pleased with that result. I know you don't plan on using this hood for long, so re-spraying is not an option. I guess if you don't care that the chipped area will still be visible, filling it in with paint that matches the OEM will probably suffice for you. I assume you're going to buy a quart of paint and use a small brush to apply it to the chip area? [/QUOTE]
