I bought a bottle of touch up paint off ebay from a good seller, it was a very good match (Truffle Mica).
I watched a youtube video by Ammo NYC, and he used a Loew-Cornell Fine Line Fluid Detailing Pen to fill the chips on the hood. I didn't use that pen, but I wish I had. The pen is around $8 on ebay.

lexus touchup pens are garbage in my opinion. its way to watery and doesnt cover very well. You'll need to apply, wait 10-15 minutes, apply again, wait 10-15 minutes, apply again, repeat ad infinity
