Touch up paint and a toothpick.

Richard is the master of this, I remember his post about his IS300.

There is also that 3M film that you can put over your the front of your car, I have talked with a couple of my friends in the mainland about it, they said it works well. Just that the film will eventually turn to a slightly yellowish brown transparent color, because of the sun. With the amount of sun we get here it could accelerate it.

I installed my own, it was a PITA but doable:

The film won't slide around but you can lift and reposition it many times over as long as you keep it really wet. It sort of sticks like saran wrap sticks to a bowl. Not sure how else to describe it. It is tricky to do no doubt, but I couldn't find anyplace to have it done

I also did this which was much easier:
