Touch-up paint

Does any1 know if we can purchase aerosol cans of touch-up paint? I called a dealer (Park Ave. BMW) and they said BMW only has the touch-up pens ($30). I want to paint the Hole Plugs for the roof rail delete.

Don't know if you are going to find such a thing - FYI, BMW sprays on a water-based paint, environmental friendly - maybe some of our Euro people can help with an idea or two?

I have purchased from these guys in the past http://www.paintscratch.com/
they offer pens and spary cans, and are an excellent match to the factory color and finish

what size plugs did you get... I found some caps at lowes but I couldn't get a nice water tight fit with a few holes.

jst2878: I got 18mm hole stops for the larger holes, and 16mm hole stops for the center holes. I am getting them from www.conrad.com...... but the problem is they won't ship to North America. I also have an assortment of 11/16, 5/8, and 9/16, which I understand work ( as per imola4.8 ). I am gonna try the 18mm and 16mm first, when they get here. You need to find someone across the pond to get the goods from conrad.com and then mail them to you.......
