Default Paint Chip Repair in Lake County, IL

Anyone have a good recommendation for paint chip repair on fender, in Lake County IL (or SE Wisconsin)? Prefer to take it to a shop that has done it a million times, instead of making a rookie try. I have two paint chips, about size of an eraser head, on rear Softail fender. The fender is white, so the chips standout like a sore thumb and bother the **** out of me.

I had a chip on the front fender tried brush touching it up , looked ok from a few feet. Then I decided to mount this challenge coin over it (much better).
A good shop should be able to handle it , if you do try it yourself, you too may wind up with a challenge coin on your fender.
