Touch-up Paint
I need some Victory Red touch-up paint for my '07 Coupe. I absolutely despise my local dealer and would prefer to order directly from the supplier. I think the code is 74. I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I need to order it before I leave for Southern California where my car is stored.I have one little 2 inch scratch on the front end which is driving me crazy. Thanks.

My recommendation is to go to another dealer.
I ordered from paintscratch.com for my AO coupe.
They sent me 3 different bottles & couldn't get the color right.
They wound up giving me a refund.
The dealer orders the touchup paint directly from the factory.
They use your VIN number to match up the touchup paint with the paint used at the time your car was built.
Apparently, the mix isn't always exactly the same.
I also found the dealer to be no more expensive than ordering online.
