Touch up paint.
 
Wanted to buy some touch up paint..anyone have a source for a good match?
Could always go the the dealer but probably a better way. Local auto parts stores only seem to carry paint matches for domestic models...not German.

Go to a good Body Shop Supply store that sells high quality paint and supplies to shops. Most of them if you give them a paint code, will mix you single stage touch up paint or the color and clear seperate... We have a shop here in town that I use and the paints are awsome; If it was summer I'd have a good excuse to take the Porsche for a cruise to Ann Arbour and bring you some paint :D

Depends on how big the chips/scratches are. Have you checked out Dr. Colorchip? They advertise in PCA Panorama and seem to have fairly good results without looking blotchy.

Touch Up Paint from PaintScratch.com has always mixed up great matches for me on various vehicles both metallic and non

I like these guys ...

Touch up Paint Kit - Express Paint

What I like (after you select your make/model/year) is you can buy a complete kit. The kit includes the clear coat you'll need to really match your paint. I really hate paint sticks. I have a few nicks ont he car now that were filled in with a paint stick. Less noticable sure, but there is a noticable hole where the missing paint is. There's quite a bit of filler, paint, clear coat above that bare metal on a Porsche.

And let us not forget Dr. ColorChip. Results are directly proportional to patience.
