Default Where to Buy Touch-Up Paint (GPW)?

Where can I get cheap touch-up paint (GPW)? I just need one of those little bottles with a brush. I'm sure the dealerships sell it, but I'm guessing it's way overpriced.

Any ideas where I can buy it cheaper and have it match?

Thanks!

Mine cost me about $7 with change and it was from the dealership. They're not that expensive.

Dealership is the best place.. If you order online some places charge hazardous material fee.. like 8 bucks to ship or some crap.. Depending on your dealership and the year of your car you may get a discount. I have an 03 nfr and i went in they gave me some paint they said was older and only charged me like 3$ for it.. They said it was just as good as the other but you need to shake it a little more..

$4.99 but shipping will likely be more than the paint

Yep, so we're all basically saying go to the dealer unless you find a used bottle.

i tried all the online places and shopped around at all the local car stores and either they didn't sell the correct sebring color or they would charge too much. i say just go to the dealership.

Thanks for all of the helpful replies. I'll stop by a dealership this weekend.
