Default Touch up Paint

Anyone know of a place I can get factory color touch up paint for my 2000 XJ8? I need to do a little touch up on the passenger rear door trim. FYI paint code is LGL. PS in the SoCal area or online order.
Thanks again.

I noticed on the how to sticky at the top of the forum. Go down to paint codes/ exterior and there is a vendor with matching colors.

Obviously from the dealer -- typical small amount w/brush.

I had to repaint some trim on my old pathfinder -- used a paint kit from Scratch Wizard. Was very impressed with the outcome .. this was with a white pearl paint requiring an extra paint step.

I had to do a few pieces of trim on my A8 (they mount to the bottom of the doors) and I bought from Scratch Wizard and it was excellent. It's a weird color too, audi burgundy red pearl effect.

Like anything paint related, it was a good product, but the results were from excellent prep.

Yes ... always more prep.

The SW was an excellent value -- I remember it being around $60. This was for 4 cans of spray paint all matched to the car -- Primer - white - pearl - clear w/pearl. Kit also came with cleaner, buffer, sand paper .. etc.
