pretty much the only thing that looks decent is to get some touch up paint (you can find it at your local nissan dealer, but www.courtesyparts.com might be cheaper..) and use a product called langka (www.langka.com)

it's worked really well for me in the past...

I used Turtle Wax chip stick. It fills in the hole and then it usually comes with color stuff that you buff onto the spot (kinda like a color match). I use the stick then some touch up paint. It won't really get rid of them but it covers them up to the naked eye pretty well.

Find out the color code of your car and head to your local Autozone to find the corresponding touch up paint.

I've used that also on my black car and it works pretty good.. It'll last for a few washes and from a distance ya really won't notice any rockchips.. up closer, you'll notice it just a little, but at least it doesnt stick out like a sore thumb.
