Stone Chips - Man, Am I P.O.ed!

My PW/B Clubman S is just over a month old. I spent a grand on the clearbra, covering the bumper, hood, headlights, foglights, and door edges. But so far, I have managed to get three (3) stone chips. Where? On the roof, of course.

One just above the windshield on the passenger side, and two on the way home from work last night. I think the two last night were caused by a single rock skip. All of them are very small, but show up on the black paint. The last two are right at eye level at the above the driver's door, so I will see them every day til I get them fixed.

I've been reading up on the stone chip repair here, but I'm afraid I'm gonna mess it up. I'm gonna run by the dealer after work to see about some touchup pain for the black roof and I know I am gonna have to get one of the "smoothing" products to do it right. I posted a question about whether you can buy the Lankga other than on line. And IMO, both the Lankga and Dr.ColorChip kits are pretty expensive for what you get.

Sorry, but just venting! As Yoda would say: "Very pissed, I am!"
