touch up paint

So my car was in the dealership since my car had engine light on, (p2135) trottle sensor thingy.

anyways, dealership offered to replace the part under warranty, yesterday I went picked up the car and had a car wash. I found out that there are some paint scratches, size of a quarty nothing really major, on the rear bumper, the paint is totally gone, I can see the metal part, so pretty deep... , not sure if the dealership did it or the car wash shop. I hate to point fingers.

anyone know anywhere I can buy some touch up paint for black coupe? maybe online? thx

Your dealer should sell it. You can also order it at MyNismo.com, but from what I hear... it doesn't match up that well and will be very obvious that it was touched up in a nonprofessional manner.

If it's scratched down to metal though, I think I would throw touch up on it regardless... just to protect the metal from rust regardless of it not looking perfect.

If you think it's the dealer's fault, just tell them and they'll be more than happy to give you some touch up paint. What I've done in the past is go to a bodyshop, give them your color code and they'll give you a small bottle.
