Just getting started.

The chipped paint around the Toyota emblem on my stock '16 OR grill is getting worse. Any suggestions on how best to fix this? Remove it from the entire surround and repaint, or is there a touch up y'all recommend?

Its plastic, just buy a new grill for a hundo and change and save yourself a wasted day not fixing it
