Does anyone know where to get like little bottles with applicators of factory paint. I know ive seen little things the size of lipstick or bigger that you could touch up any scratches and stuff. What could anyone recomend to fix these scratches i have.

I used some Duplicolor from Wal-Mart, pretty sure it was ford silver or something. It turned up being darker than the silver on my car, so it might match your grayish/silver color pretty well. Either way, keeps sh** from rusting out, so its all good.

talk to your local body shop or dealership, hopefully you have a stock color, if you dont you might be SoL, also get Lanka, makes it look like you never used touchup paint. GL

Lanka is a liquid base tht removes extra touch up paint. It allows you to get just the spots filled up and you will remove the rest from wiping it down with lanka.

Yeah, your local toyota dealer should sell touch-up paint... you'll need to know your color code (it's on the inside of the door hinge I think, but they'll be able to tell you where). I got a little bottle for about 5 bucks.
