best way to remove rock chips

is this even possible?
I have tried touch up paint and it looks wierd cause my paint has faded in the past 10 years (1993 R1)
I have also tried that color matching Turtle wax that comes with the crayon thing... nice wax, but didn't do much for the clips

am I missing something, or do I just deal with it till I get the car repainted?

Stone chips are a fact of life. have you ever been to a GT car race. just look at those cars' front ends after a race. completely gone to ****. But, then again, the teams do have the $$ to re paint them.

You just need to live with it. My philosophy is that scratches, dings and dents just add character to the car. Its fun when you can say "this dent behind my wheel well is from my first Auto X" or somthing allong those lines.
