Touch up paint

[chriscoates81]

Hi guys, wheres the best place to get touch up paint and is it worth doing. I have a few chips in the bumper and a couple of little marks on the door which don't go through the primer and i just wanted to touch them up a bit the colour is midnight blue if that makes a difference. The white on the bumper and the redon the door really stand out!!

Get the paint code from your VIL sticker and call your OPC. They sell a paint and lacquer set for around £10.

Yea thats the colour of the primer isn't it? Unless of course the doors been replaced and its from a guards red 996.

Your primer should be white as on your bumper. Sounds like something has happened to your door in the past.
Doesn't really matter now though does it?

No i suppose not. I know the front end had a bit a respray at some point so i wonder if the door was smashed in at somepoint beyond repair.

Is there much colour difference between ocean blue and midnight blue?

Big difference. Ocean blue is like a navy blue, Midnight blue is almost a black blue.
