If the paint chips are quite small then some touch up paint would do fine wether it is solid colour or mettalic. Larger paint chips can be filled with paint via touch up brush or airbrush, left to dry, flatted off with some 1500 or 2000 grit wet&dry and then polished up to blend in. The latter option is best left to a competent paint tech if your unsure (just in case you rub right through). Or if you dont mind splashing the cash call in a smart repair guy.
