Default PCM touch-up paint

I have a tiny scratch on my PCM, next to the volume ****, that catches my eye and is bugging the crap out if me. I've searched Rennlist and 6speedonline. I cannot find any threads of touch-up paint for the PCM. You know, that silver-grey metallic color. Anyone have any ideas?

I may need to go to a model shop and check their selection out.

Porsche doesn't have it? I know you can't get touch-up paint for the seatbacks from the dealer, but one of the guys here had a custom batch made up.

Damn, I just noticed a pea-sized chip in my passenger AC vent (how that happened is anyone's guess - gf's purse, maybe) and it's been bugging me as well.

I was thinking I should wrap it with silver carbon fiber vinyl, but it looks a little too chintzy to me.

You might try a silver colored Sharpie. I have used this on a couple of interior scratches and while not 100% perfect it is close enough that it now longer catches my eye and annoys me and it is super cheap and easy. And if you don't like it you can wipe it off with some rubbing alcohol.
