Default Stone Chip in Fairing

Darn - riding today, truck going other way threw out something (think it a piece of gravel) into my lane. It put a nick into my fairing. What's the best fix? Not sure, but does HD sell touch up paint? Was thinking about finger nail polish around the same color. The nick is probably the size of a stick pin head.

Yes H-D sells touch up paint. Dont try to do it all at once..build the paint up. Use a toothpick with very little paint on it. Let dry 45 min or so and apply again and keep repeating till area is full.
