Went and had the dealer fix my airbag stuffs today. Took about 2 and a half hours, they were rather busy though. Also got touch-up paint to fill in the little chips in my hood, just need to wait for it to not rain so I can wash the car put the pant on and put some wax on her.

Paint was only like $10.95 US

Which touch-up paint did you get? I saw somewhere that there are two different types for the Versa. One is paint only and it's in a standard bottle with a small brush attached to the cap. The other one is more like a pen, and it has the paint in one end and a clear coat in the other end. I've never used one like that, but I'd be interested to try when I need it someday (no chips yet).

Mine was kinda both, it's got a pen and you open the bottle up and there is the brush inside.

I got the pen at my dealer.Has the clear coat on one end,The pen is a felt tip with no point, and is hard to touch up fine marks,Its all right for larger chips,But the best is ,Get a good quality brush from a craft store.Shake the pen and hold the felt tip down on a clean piece of tin or glass and use the paint brush to touch up.

Yes the touch up paint with a brush,But to get it looking good or match you have to go over with a clear.
