Goto a autobody shop supply house and get a aerosol spray gun kit like this :
Have the paint/body supply house mix up a quart of single stage ready to shoot mix and goto town. Or you can do a base/clear with these as well but obviously more money in materials. The guys at the store should be able to help with the easiest way to achieve what you need to do.Comment

I run into this problem after every trip I make accross the US-with all the rock chips/pitting on my valence. I decided to take a trip to a few auto parts stores and just started buying all the shades of red I could find that looked like they matched my car. Took it all home, pulled the valence off and started painting. After about 3 tries I found the shade that matched 99%. I'm not worried about the look of it too much as it is a wear item and gets done every year. Plus, the rough texture of the valence hides some of the imperfections.
I dont know how big of an area you need to cover, or the overall condition of your cars paint, but that is what has worked for me.

you can get the paint matched or pick from a color book and have them put it in to a spray bomb can. Then spray bomb some clear, wet sand, and buff. Perfect cheap way to paint a highly proned area to rock chips.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
