Dr Colorchip was the highest rated touch up kit in a recent Wall Street comparison. Check them out here: http://www.drcolorchip.com/

Dr. Colorchip is the very best touch up paint, costs more than OE but the results are worth it....

Great thread! Would these touch up paints work well on the front lip of the car as well or is it more for metal surfaces? I have some chips on my front bumper and some minor scrapes on the very bottom of the lip. I have ivory pearl as well. I am thinking if I should go OEM or Dr.colorchip.

Heres a link to the dr color chip thread.

dr. color chip looks like it only works on little rock chips.

for a paint chip the size of a nickel. It would be best to use the OEM crap. Then lightly went sand it to blend it all in.
