CHIP/DENT (Small yet noticibly driving me nuts)

Hey guys,

at the front quarter panel of my coupe is a dent ... very tiny... around the size of a HALF PEA.... but still very annoying because I have DG and the chip/dent is WHITE...

I am curious if you guys have had experience w/ this and dealt w/ it in a particular way?

I was recommended touchup paint... but the chip is of course a little dent...so the texture gets abrasive at that point...

What's the touch up paint to match DG btw?

Thanks for the help

I had a similair dent and scratch mark from a door ding. I got the dent out at the dealership and he put a little touch up paint on it and you really cant notice it now. He said I could take it to a body shop and have them put some new clear coat over it, but I dont even see it anymore. Just get the dent out and touch up paint and I think you will be pleased.

Hi Dubb, how much was the repair? And TCFOOL, I checked the website out, seems good and hardcore at the same time, I'm afraid I might make the situation worse if I try it on my own though!

BTW. what is the match for DG?

WV2 seems to be the color code for the DG... awesome link btw, thanks TCFOOL--can anybody verify the color code for the Diamond Graphite color?

WV2 yes that is it... look on your inside door jam or on the engine tag on the battery side........
