There is likely nothing wrong with your paint. It may have to do with where you drive, or the fact that Hondas have soft paint. If you plan on keeping the car in like new condition, get a professionally installed clear bra. The dealer will do nothing for you.

Re: Paint Chips
Rock chips are going to happen on a daily driver. Clear bra will protect from this. I have used dr. color chip with great success as well
Back to the full-time grind.

Re: Paint Chips
I will check out Dr. Color Chip, I had seen this product and figured I'd either get the OEM touch-up from Honda or this product. Just pretty upset about the chips considering it's so new. As far as the clear bra, I did a quick Google search, seems pretty useful, but would I clean this just as I was cleaning the car if it wasn't there?
Also, my god, thanks for such quick responses!

Re: Paint Chips
Are the white hondas single stage paint? My sister has one and it has a rock chip on the hood and it went straight down to bare metal. Rust has formed were the chip is.

Don't go expecting "perfect" 'cause perfect don't come in a little box, but if you follow the process you should be quite pleased with your results.

Re: Paint Chips
I have used Langka paint repair kits and they are out of this world. There is a process to the repair but it works great.

Re: Paint Chips
The chips seem small enough that you won't need manufacturer touch up paint, so the previously mentioned options should work.
In addition to a clear bra you might want to add a coating for added protection, opti-coat, gtechic EXO or cquartz.
