Stone chip!!!!!
I know how u feel. Last week my virgin bonnet got her first stone chip. Speeding lorry on 2nd lane in front of me kicked up stones. I tried to kick the alignment out of the lorry's front tyre out but ended up foot pain. But revenge is sweet. I am insensible, immature and irrelevant.

Re: Stone chip!!!!!
I doubt so. The size of the chip means it is probably caused by a tiny stone being kicked up by a vehicle travelling in front of me. If a person threw a stone of that size I doubt a person can generate that much force from a tiny stone to chip off the paint and a bigger stone would have left a dent in the bonnet.

Re: Stone chip!!!!!
my grey front splitter also got chips already.... thought of removing it. Kind of troublesome, cannot enter quite a few carparks.

Don't panic. I forgot to mention that ride was JDM coupe with Veilside kit, bonnet stuck out far beyond the front wheel.
BMWs have shorter lengths of the bonnet past the front wheels, so you should do fine if you angle properly and inch slowly down the steeper slopes.
Here's a nice vid with Silvias and RX7s. If you notice, broken front bumpers are common.
