04-11-2012, 08:10 PM #1so ive been having an incredibly hard time finding touch up paint that maches the color. most auto parts stores dont carry our model year and when you try to match up the color using the sticker on the bottle you either get a shade to dark or to light.

Go to the dealer, give them your info, and viola, you have your exact OEM paint. It is the most painless process, and you know you are getting exactly what you need.

They were able to mix up an exact match for the Nautical Blue on my '85 300D, while-I-waited. $44 for a quart can though.
Gone but not forgotten: two W123 sedans and two W124 wagons.
W124 1987 300TD wagon, for sale, $1000 (some assembly required).
