Paint Pen / Touch-up Paint
 
Should I just order it from the dealership? I found one place online, but they don't deliver to Canada :mad0260:

I just got one from the dealership. After tax, it's like $13. Not really cheap, but it's not a bad investment. It'll last you a long time anyway.

Go to a Subaru dealership (I assume you have an FRS). It's subaru paint so they should have it in stock (minus hot lava).

I went to Wietzes Toyota/Scion (located at Highway 7 and Dufferin).

They didn't have the paint pen either, but placed an order for it right after I spoke to them. Ask to speak to the manager of the parts department at the dealership you go to. They should make it their duty to order one from Toyota for you, at no additional charge. If they don't, just threaten to take your business (buying parts, service appointments, etc.) to another Scion dealership that is willing to take care of its customers.

The employee you dealt with should be fired. That is not an acceptable attitude in customer service. He should have at least checked their inventory system to see if they even have some coming in.

Guys just read this ^^! Go to any Subaru dealer and they should already have them in stock.

I went into the dealership, got them to order one. Now the fun part, waiting.

Let me know how the pen repair holds up after you wash your car a few times. I have a couple scratches in my front bumper from squeezing into tiny parallel parking spots and was going to go the pen repair route. Thanks

Stands up really well! I have a few spots I did and even with touchless washes twice a week through the winter all is good. Will try to get a pic but highly doubt anything will even show up in one.

Holy crap, 2 washes a week! I'm not worthy.. In that case, I suppose it will hold up fine with my one wash every 2 months or so (call it rally style). Thanks!

Yep! I have the cleanest dirty car in Ontario. The unlimited season pass was cheap since I used some card points and it is where I get my gas anyway so to take 5 extra minutes to run through is no big deal.
Tried to get a pic but like I thought it just looks like a mass of orange on the screen so you will have to take my word for it!
