Bro..PM you already..last time consider normal paint shop also..but.."normally" paint shop will re-spray the whole panel..i.e. lost the original paint..some more..seem that in your case..its 2 panel..i.e door and the back panel..

So I settle with chipsaway in batu caves (check their webpage for contact no)..

Also my research last time, I also considering a paint workshope behind auto bavaria sg besi..the BMW forum said that this is where Sg Besi AB sent their car if got small scratches and paint job..(but still paint whole panel)..might worth to check out if you live in that area

My two cent bro..hope its help

Can share info of such places? Never know it might come in handy.

Dont need..good paint shop will know where to find the colour code (i.e. near the door panel - below or top of the recomended tyre pressure for our 308).

Then, in my case, the painter open up his peugeot-citroen colour chart and show you the exact colour he will re-spay your car with.



mizhael,
Looking at yoiur photo again, is you car really got dented?? or just scratch??
If only scratch, Chipsaway should charge you cheaper, they dont need to pull out the dent using the suction cup, put putty, sand over it, primer, body colour and finaly clear coat..

If only scratch maybe they can skip the suction cup and putty part (i dont know maybe yuo need to ask them)

I had called SC and they also ask me to read it from door panel.
Let me capture photo of the label at door panel later, cause none of it look like color code to me.
