thewelsho Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Folks, can anyone advise on where I can pick up some touch up paint to fill in the several chip marks I have on my bonnet. I tried Halfrauds which was a waste of time as they had no Subaru colours at all. The car is WR Blue. Thank you. John
wrxmania Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Subaru is your best bet - they'll have them [] I got mine from Nobles - Derek in the bodyshop made it up himself - to match the paint on the spoiler and sideskirts when they painted them. Brian []
bigdavie Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 if your gonna do it . do it right !! get it painted properly by my big mate andy here http://www.bodyworxscotland.com/ then try thse guy's ! http://www.rhinoprotect.co.uk/ hth john !
john mac Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 You should have been able to get a touch up bottle out of Halfords mate , I got some WR Blue out the the one in Hamilton,they make it up for you behind the counter, good sized bottle and a perfect colour match for about £8 iirc.
dipsy Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I went to the local bodyshop and he mixed me a tin of touch up paint for my car
darryl_martin Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Got mine from the dealer about £8 iirc. Dabbed it in with a cocktail stick then went over the top when it was dry with a clay bar[Y]

thewelsho Posted August 6, 2006 Author Posted August 6, 2006 Let me know how you get on John. Mine's got more chips than mcdonalds. Stephen, Called Halfords at EK (local store ish) and they do the mixing as you wait, so I am going to do that tomorrow.
thewelsho Posted August 6, 2006 Author Posted August 6, 2006 Hmmm I'm thinking it was £8 for some reason. I think one of the guys on this thread said that. Want me to pick you some up? J
