touch up paint ???

I have an eternal blue ex and I have about a dime sized "chip" in my paint on the bumper. I dont think is went through the primer, but I want to know if anyone has boughten any touch up paint from honda before. If so how did it turn out? Did it blend in well? and about how much is it gonna be for a little bottle?

from my experience with touchup paint,I thought it was a bit lighter than the stock colors... if its really small, it should do the trick. I have a pearl green, maybe its a difficult color [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

My touch up paint was horribly unmatched. I have a silver car, and it was like dark flat grey. In order for it to match well, you have to use primer and then a gloss coat. (Or so I've heard)

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] I've got an EBP sedan, i f'd up a little of my body kit, sanded it down, and bought custom mixed spray can (12-16 oz) for about 20$ and it matches awesome..........it's from a custom auto body paint shop near my house, worth every penny. I also did my headlights and it matched near perfect - d
