Paint nick

I picked up my yaris over the weekend. Inspected it but I didn't notice this little nick of paint on the side door till today (it's sunny). It seems like some of the paint came off since I can see some bare metal. It's like 2 1mm chips. Am I totally out of luck? Will the dealership do anything for me?

If you have to do it yourself, check out PaintScratch.com.. they have many different ways from Gallon cans of your paint, to small little touch up pens.

I already have some nasty (In my new owner eyes :S) nicks and ordered a touch up pens set from paintscratch.com. (I ordered it on Saturday, so I'm waiting for it)
Go to the dealership as Kaymm and riceboy suggested, but if that doesn't work, atleast you have a backup plan.

Yeah, I'll call them up to see what they can do. Even if they did do something, you think they will repaint the whole door for 1mm nicks? Plus I'd be without a car for a while. I guess the touch up route is the way for me. I hope they give me a free one :)

If you put it on, would you notice it? does it blend in? do you need to buff?
