Bad Stone Chip

I can live with them to be honest but the one i got the a couple of days ago was the worst i'd seen, just under the drivers door mirror, made a big bang.
It's took the paint off and dinted the shell...gutted.
I'm barred from my local Vw Stealers due to me taking the bait one time too many a couple off months ago.
Can anyone recommend a touch up paint that will match and where do i get it from ?

Thanks.

agreed, get someone else to buy it for you or go to another dealer. don't get halfords paint, it can be bad.

halfords mixed paint is awful, i watched the guys make up some for my dads car and it was just guess work!!

Ok, Cheers lads.
Looks like i'll be taking someone with me to the stealers then.

Anyone got any idea how much it is ?

Much appreciated.
