Chipping Paint?

I have some clear coat chipping on the hood and tail. Is this common? Does anyone have a solution other than repainting the whole car. Is it possible to polish off? Thanks a lot!

Re: Anyone running Falken ZE-502 or KUMHO ECSTA SUPRA 712 tires on their vette? (gtsyellow)

I have the Falkens. They are a good tire so far, better than the GSCs. I would have gone with the Ecstas from tirerack.com if I could get them where I am. Super deal.
