Angry Paint Chips...

Ok, this made me VERY mad...well I still am but....ok I live in Indiana, some reason the state/county's have yet to learn how to take care of roads but, I was going down a road that had recently been "chip&sealed" which they put tar on it then gravel chips on and let the cars push the gravel down into the tar....obvisuly most people dont care about there car but it had rained recently and a truck flew by in the oppisite direction and went through a puddle in the road and threw rocks and water all over my car. 3 paint chips in the hood and a small one on the door. Can this be repaired without having the whole hood and door repainted? I got my bumper scratched (in a parking lot not by me) and I took it to a body shop and they said they would have to repaint the whole bumper. I dont really want the whole hood and door repainted but I cant live with chips in the paint. What do I ask for, where can I go? A good body shop?

Thanks
