Please, please do not drive the car. My last car only got PPF 3 years into its life after experiencing a lot of stone chips. I filled in many of those spots well enough but you'd see the outlines show up lightly under PPF.

If you'd be bothered by that for the rest of the ownership of the car, don't drive it. Or be prepared to have it professionally fixed (sanded, painted and clear-coated) and then wait 30 days for paint cure before PPF.
