I have just recently purchased a VS Commodore Series 2 S Pack, but the car came with a couple of scuffs and a little chipped paint (no dents or panel damage) around the edges of the rear bumper and around the side of the front bumper and edge of the front right quarter panel, they're not huge but I still want to cover them, I just need to know if you can still get touch up paint for the black/dark dark green that it came in? Cheers :)

Any car painter worth his or her salt , can supply bottles of touch up paint , I suggest paying one a visit .

Hi
you will need a paint code its on one of the id plates under the hood...autobahn do a paint mix service but they only mix to the paint code,this always tends to be a tad darker due to fade on the orig paint (metallic's are a pain to get right) what I do is get a smaller tin of the lightest color in the mix then use that to tone the color down in small amounts,but remember that the color tends to be darker when its wet and will lighten as it dries...

I got the quote through an online retailer, but I'll check autobarn. I got a really good deal with my spack, 1 owner for 17 years , in almost immaculate condition, the only work needing done is the brakes, brake rotors, spark plugs and spark leads, plus the touch up on the paint.
