Default Need Help Please!

Hey guys,
My 05 is three weeks old, only taken on one longer trip and I paid for it. On the highway, I had small rocks/gravel hit the front and chip the paint in a few places. it is really hard to see, but I know its there and want to prevent it. I have 2 questions....
1. Anyone know of a way to get rid of the chips, like a color match or something?
2. How can I prevent this from happening again? I don't want a Bra, I don't like How they look on the S.

Thanks for the help.

1. touch up paint... or pen - the pen is my first choice when the repair area is small.
2. my car is 5 years old and the front looks new- my secret is to give lots of room to the car in front (and especially when the car in front in an suv or truck!). we can easily pass from way back when we need to pass.
