How do you go about obtaining touch up sticks for TVRs? My Griff has picked up an inevitable stone chip. Is it a case of finding the paint code under the bonnet and getting Halfords to mix it or main dealer only thing?

I got some touch-up paint (kind of a pen really) from TMS. Cost about £10, but did take them about 4 months, and several calls as they tended to forget and cancel the order at least once...lol...

All they needed was the body code which on the metal strip under the bonnet, top of the wing, assumming all the body codes are of the same format, it should be for example TVR032.

Nick,
Tried crushing some mushy peas into the chip.

You could try this lot, www.tvrbodyshop.co.uk , about 13 quid I think. Excellent service.
