    For a quick fix, (that will only last a few washes) try a permanent marker pen, like the Staedtler range. It will hide the mark/chip until you get it fixed.

    With black you are in a better spot than blue or red as the marker pen matches the colour a bit better.

    Dealers sell touch up paint with a little brush, a panel shop could help or the stone chip repair guys can come to you...all down to what you want to pay. You should see change out of a $50.

    If you want to go the permanent marker route use an Artline #17 Industrial marker. It is the longest lasting.

    Otherwise get some Micro Brushes and a bottle of touchup from the dealer. Its not that hard if the chip is small
