A real auto paint dealer (one that sells paint to body shops) can scan a body panel or chip and get the recipe but it may still be different than any manufactured touch up paint. Some can custom mix a rattle can though.

Yep, Take a chip in (about 1/4 inch square is enough) to a real auto paint shop and they will make you an exact match.

I'd like to know what it is if you find out. I think we have the same color, but yours looks a shade darker than my '14. flic.kr/p/nEDdPZ

What is so hard to take a small panel off and into a real auto paint store that has a color scanner? Then your sure about your individual color, others may be close, but close counts only in horseshoes and hand grenades.

Our local dealer not found correct paint. They mixed it too dark. I think they used scanner for that paint. I repaired scratch with Maston 217750 color. This color is little blueish, but it match nicely. Not perfectly but enought for me. I will try to find correct paint during the next four months.
Cheers Ari
