My paint job is overall in excellent shape with the car being garage kept and taken very good care of. I just want to repair some small hood paint chips from pebbles at high speed and can't believe how absolutely awful the Subaru paint match was. Gave Subaru dealer my vin number and was given one Titanium Peearl, color code 89N, for the bottom 1/3 of the car, which matches nearly perfectly, and a White Frost Pearl, Color Code No. 01X, for the top part. They provided only one bottle for the white paint - the White Frost Pearl, and it doesn't match at all, even after shaking that bottle for nearly 5 minutes. Appears mostly shiny gray/silver and in general has so little white in it no way it can match. Is Subaru forgetting a white base color that goes under it, and how could they not know when they have the Vin#? Bill earlier in this thread mentioned two white colors he was given. If the White Frost Pearl is a composite color, why didn't Subaru send two bottles for it? Which of these is my best bet: 1) Subaru for the white base color that goes under the color I was given, though perhaps they don't even carry it anymore 2) Dr. ColorChip Automotive Paint Chip Repair Kit - Dr. ColorChip: Automotive Paint Chip Repair Systems mentioned in this thread Company is Dr. ColorChip Corporation, Lake Park, FL 33403. $39.95 + $8.95 shipping = $48.90, Repairs up to a dozen chips and includes 1/2oz custom OEM match paint Base and Midcoat Paint; 1oz SealAct™ blending solution, 1 ultra paint brush, 1 nitrile glove , 1 white blending cloth: http://www.drcolorchip.com/cgi-bin/s...4&redirect=yes 3) How to find touch up paint for your make and model ?
