Default Where to find OEM Touch Up Paint?

Hello All.

I walked outside this morning to find that someone backed into the SS – remarkable how that happens even when you park in the very back part of the lot! From a damage standpoint, it only looks like I'll need some minor work on a dent in the front quarter panel, a really good wax and a couple touch ups on the paint.

My car is Navy Blue Metallic and I'd prefer to match the color as closely as possible. Anyone have a good recommendation as to where I could find a nice touch up kit to match the OEM color? Mid America Designs sells an awesome touch up kit (bought one from them for my Corvette), however I'm not sure if they offer the same NBM to match my car.

Duplicolor makes the correct NBM in rattle cans or you can get rattle cans from the dealership. Advance and Autozone often will carry the small cans of duplicolor. When I decided to touch up my engine bay, I bought several cans from the Autobarn. Part number is DSGM505.

search paintscratch(dot)com . they have every factory color you could think of and you can get the paint in the form of pen, bottle/brush, spray, or container, its a great online store but not exactly the cheapest. I ordered some paint for my silver Z06 rims and it was a perfect match.
