    Default Touch up work / paint?

    Getting ready to sell my car which is perfect other than 2 annoying things ...

    1. A cracked windshield - easy, get a new one. Thoughts on best company to go with?

    2. A scuff from some bs parking lot rub and run. Its about 4 inches long and the thickness of a toonie, not bad at all but still wanna get it cleaned up pre-sale. Rest of the small scuff was buffed out. Thoughts on best route here? I'm thinking touch up paint, where's best source?

    Car is a white 335i sedan ...

    Thanks in advance beyonders.

    Everyone has a different definition of what constitutes a 'scuff'

    Also because it's 2012 and any thread having to do with a question of specific damage to paint should by default have a picture to go with it.

    If you call a body shop with this question they will tell you to bring it in for an estimate, same principle applies here, let's see what you're talking about.

    Here is a good example:
