i would have thought that the audi dealer would have been able to supply paint to cover any colour that was sold,(granted, not "off the shelf") but available within a couple of weeks, if brought in on a stock order,and not incurring"emergency costs",or next day delivery etc.
the car is not "standing",or broken down,waiting for paint,so what's wrong with £9 exactly?:confused:

dont know how much the audi paint is as the dealer could not find the colour code match to a part number,as to price i would rather pay less if i can but then i dont know the price of an audi touch up

sorry, my fault, my touch up kit from halfords was for a vw, bora,reflex silver.
surely they won't charge more for an audi?
it's only paint for gods sake:confused:
