Vinyl Racing Stripe repair

Just curious about what to do if marks do get through the stripe to paint below, or worst.?. I was skeptical after I had them dealer installed, they sure
look good though, and maintenance seems easy after reading the forums!
It looks like a spot has been knocked off from a rock. There are spots where
the installer had wrinkled the stripes a little, so hopefully if there is a problem I can get them replaced under warranty.
Any repair kits similar to paint chip repair?
Hope winter ends, I want to drive!

Sorry, you cannot repair vinyl stripes like you can with paint. If you get stone chips, all you can do is get vinyl that matches and cut it out small enough to fill the chip. However, if it is too small it will not stick for very long. If you get scratches deep enough in them that it scratched the paint, well, you'd have to remove the stripe to repair the paint.
