Not what you asked for, tho Dr. Color Chip could be a quick/affordable fix for a diy!

Thanks! Do you know if any shops use the doctor color chip method? It seems to be a really popular solution. I just don’t trust my skills to apply it properly.

It's not that complicated. I've used the Dr Colorchip solution on my 2013 E82 in Carbon Black. The process was easy and the paint match was perfect.

I just ordered a kit for my 2025 CX-5 as I already have a paint chip on my front bumper.

Agreed!

jawjam2002 Not sure about any shops, but it’s hard to mess up colorchip! Check some videos out on YouTube, effectively it’s 3 steps:

1 - clean the surface
2 - add a little paint to the side of the chip, and smear across the chip
3 - use the blending solution to wipe away the excess paint/level it

only thing that could really go wrong is if you just leave the excess paint to dry or when using the blending solution (which is included) you accidentally wipe away the new paint you just applied, if that happens just try again (it happened to me haha).

Email the company. They gave me a local guy's name. I have a about 2 spots. One tiny tiny. The other bigger. Went to a restaurant and parked way to the side of handicap. The handicap spot had easily two and half spots but still parked close and rubbed my door. F***king Audi SUV. I hate Audis. Low reliability junk. It is very small but the car has no marks (just two now three).

Don't blame Audi. Blame yourself for using your car. It's inevitable.
