Hi guys,

My 2014 Porsche Cayman S is quickly becoming peppered by stone chips and little dinks in the paintwork presumably from peoples car doors etc..

I've got about 4 nasty one's on the bonnet and both wings where it has penetrated through the layers of paint. Additionally, I have about 3 on the bumpers where the paint has been chipped revealing a black surface underneath.

What's my options in getting these repaired would you say and can anyone recommend a place to do it? Respraying the different parts is out the question so it'll need to be a touch up job.

Thanks!

Either a touch up stick from Porsche, or if someone on here can suggest a good bodyshop who can match the paint and do the touch ins for you, then laquer over them.

Regrettably those type of cars collect paint chips, my boxtsers used to be the same in the UK and my 370 here is the same too, annoying!

Thanks mate. The stone chips I can accept but the thought of people carelessly swinging their car doors without a care in the World makes me very annoyed.

Know exactly how you feel, regrettably in this part of the world no one seems to give a toss in car parks, its highly irritating!!
