paint. Just enough to fill in the chip area.
This is easiest to do with a tooth pick dipped
in the touch paint and then transferred into
the chip. Don't worry about complete coverage
on the first attempt. Let the first application
dry and then give it another shot and let that
dry. After a week or 2 you can polish the area.
Shouldn't be too noticeable afterward. This is
the reason I have not put a clear bra on my 740i.
Chips often times occur regardless.
