Well, if you don't want to paint, then live with them. You think that there is some magical way to get rid of the stone chips without painting?
Get a black sharpie marker, that is cheap enough.

Ive just had my bonnet and bumper painted on my 05 because of stone chips, it wasnt to bad circa ?200 from a good independant and it was finished in the anti chip clear coat that BMW claim to use.
