Does it exist for a PY? My mom backed into my car last night and put a few little scratches in the back bumper. She handed my a check for $1,000 a said "go get it fixed" . Since its already a battle wagon and held togther by zip ties I just decided that she can keep the money and I'll just put some touch up paint on it. Is there such thing as OEM touch up paint? If not how hard will it be for a body shop to match PY?

 

there should be. ask at acura/honda dealership for the specific number of the paint. they should also have in there.

i'd get the whole car resparyed for a about 500 at makko or something

 

it does exist..but probably not in stock. I bought some at my dealer last summer

 

Touch-up paint definately exists.
Comes in little bottles, but since the dealership won't necessarily stock it they may ask you to buy the 4-6 package that the (nail polish size) bottles come in.

BTW -- the paint code is: Y-56 Phoenix Yellow

Thanks for the info guys.

 

i guess it depends on where you live. if you live in pretty decent size town/city you should able to get it over the counter.

i live in ATL and i got it just by going to parts department.

I know Wal-Mart sells NBP, but I've never seen any PY anywhere. If they don't have it at a dealership then some of the better paint shops will make you a bottle.

 

They DO have it at the dealership. When I got mine, they had it in stock.

The part number for the touch-up paint (0.44 ounce bottle, with brush in the cap) is 08703-Y56AA.

 

Here it is for $4

3 bottles per pack

 

not PY, but i bought some puple color paint, it wasnt in stock, but i got a single bottle. maybe because it wasnt a rare color they sold me a single bottle.

 

Damn $1000, wish my mom would back into me

yeah the dealer should carry it. Pretty cheap, around $4-6 at the dealer.

Anyways have you considered just having the bumper painted? You can probably find a local shop to blend it for under $200.

Good luck

 

I've got a few bottles in PY if you need them

You may also want to get a bottle of Langka:

to eliminate the blub from touch-up paint. I've never tried it but I read about it a while ago on a VW site and it seems pretty good.
