Chips on the bottom of my medium BGE

After 20 years, I replaced by medium BGE's nest. The old one was rusting at the joints and the wheels were frozen in place, so it was definitely time. After we did it, I noticed that there were a few chips on the area below vent door that were chipped, one of them about an 1/8th of an inch. I've attached a photo of the chips.
Should I leave them alone? Should I try and repair them, and if so, with what?
Many thanks for any feedback!

You can use Hunter Green paint from Home Depot. Just get the sample size for like $2.Chester County, PA

Thanks for the feedback. You don't think the chip itself has to be repaired? In other words, it's just cosmetic?BTW, I checked inside the BGE and there is no damage at the areas that are chipped on the outside.

It should be just cosmetic. I had a couple chips in the same spot and touched it up as many on this board have done and haven't had any problems.Chester County, PA

Thanks, Matty. As you suggest, I'll get some paint the next time I do a Home Depot run.

It took me awhile, but I wanted to report back that I bought a spray can of Rustoleum Hunter Green paint. I couldn't find a sample size, but a full can was only $3.98. The color is perfect and it solved the problem.Thanks, MattyMc!
