Not the ECU variety, the fibreglass variety. Had the Griff resprayed last year, and have picked up my first chip - and it's a good 'un. Front end of bonnet, vertical chip 15mm x 2mm, down to the white substrate. Colour is Crimson Starmist if that is relevant.
Any thoughts on how best to proceed? Anyone used Chips Away or similar?

Thanks in advance.

Same boat as yourself, chip on front, my car was resprayed 2 years ago. Bonnet full respray I am quoted at £200, so getting it done, only option to be 100% happy as you know someone else will spot it smile

Drive it and don't worry about it? you can get a pot of touch up off ebay the correct colour. It could happen again within 5 mins of an expensive respray! lol.
