the dealership. they take a paint number that is found inside your door on the sticker and match up what kind of paint you need. I just bought a little tube and it cost like 8 bucks.

Dealership. It's about $10 for a vial of it.

I accidently reversed into my friend's front plate and it made about 1/4 size penny scratch. I went to my dealer and got touch up paint and problem solved.

Ya take your time and do a nice job with the touch up paint, then give your car a good clean and wax the baby good and you will barely notice where you put the touch up paint.

How well does it work? Does anyone have a picture?

The touch up paint??? Its in pen like container that looks like a permanent marker. You can use it like a white out pen or take a brush out of it like nail polish. The brush works way better by the way.

Any pics though?

How well the paint works all depends on your prep and how much time you take to sand it, etc.

Check this guy out:
A small "how-to" on chip repair/wetsanding + spring cleaning (black G35) (56k = owie) - Autopia Car Detailing Forum

He doesn't really show before and after, but he does circle where the touch up was and you can't even tell the difference
