Stone Chips - Repairs And Preventions?

[zehffro]

I was cruising along Mitchell freeway last night, pulled up at a gas station for a refill (weds are cheap fuel days) to my bloody horror I've got at least 50 stone chips on my front bumper.what a bloody bummer. didn't follow behind any vehicles and kept a safe speed limit.

any others encountered the same situation? can anyone recommend repair places in perth ie cheap respray/touchup that i can get my paint back into good condition? also anyone tried using vinyl wraps to prevent stone chips?

will upload pics later.

For protection on long drives (to zedfest etc) we have used 'Autoskin'.

Works really well for small stones/bugs/dust spray from trucks etc.
