      The paint code is on or around the left shock tower, and it being a odd color, go to your local automotive paint retailer. A place that sells paint only for cars either ppg or DuPont you can get a touch up can custom matched for $10 around me. I don’t know what they will change but that’s where you will get matching touch up paint from.
