Individual Color - Touch Up Paint Kit - Not Avail.

Apparently, BMW does not make/sell touch up paint kits for individual colors. And the body shop that BMW uses here locally, can only mix a minimum amount and it has to be used within 15min.

Lesson learned. I should have paid those $1200 for the front bumper clear bra protection... LOL!

Oh well, it gives the car more character

Reporting back (30Aug2022)
After the recommendation in this thread, I went ahead and order a kit from ScratchesHappen.com via Amazon; for some reason Scratches Happen.com did not have my color, but Amazon did???

Any way. Finally got it today, applied it, and the miniature scratch went practically away! But before I applied it, I tested it on a white sticky note, put it next to my car's paint to make sure it matched, and bingo!

The scratch was so small that I ended up using one of their toothpick that come in their kit. This is the smallest applicator in the kit.

Also, note that the paint code for Mexico Blue is P5A.
