Hey guys I hope everyone is doing well, but I’m not really… my Toyota dealership is out of stock of our GR Supra touch up paint and I need a touch as soon as possible so I can put my skipchip protector on my hood and front bumper. I believe that BMW will have the same color as ours but I don’t know the color code for BMW. My Supra is “Absolute Zero” and the color code is 0D01. I don’t know what BMW’s code is?

Does anyone know by chance?

I had the same problem. Toyota touch up paint and BMW touch up paint for this color code doesnt match the OEM color. Dr. colorchip only makes flat touch up paint and doesn’t have the metallic flakes that the absolute zero paint does.
I have yet to find a solution 😭😭

Touching up metallic is not very matching even if one used factory touch up because the flake orientation is different ending up in a different shade.

I'm an RC guy so I just mix my own colors using plastic model enamel next to the chip and dab on. In your case I'd place clear tape on the hood and start mixing white with some yellow or slight dab of black or blue to get the hue correct on the tape while comparing with your existing paint color.

Then touch up the chip multiple times until somewhat flat to convex. Very gentle wet sand and chip is usually undetectable.

I don't remember the last time I bought touch up paint..
