Not much you can do besides a respray.

Not entirely true. You can wetsand the edges of the peeling clear in order to keep it from spreading, but that's not gonna bring the shine back to the paint, and it's only gonna stop the spread for a short time. KornFlakeZ is right that if you want it completely fixed, then a respray is the only option.

Thanks! I'll be sure to wet sand the peels.
I've heard that clear coat repair found at local autobody stores, could bring the shine back temporarily, should I consider doing that?

^ I wouldn't waste time with that... I suggest you just save for a respray or go buy a body shop and see if they can do something.
