I am a female. One reason I have thought of for buying touch up paint is they tend to not have the touch up paint available too long after they put out a new version of the vehicle. I remember having a Honda Civic years ago, a 1999. For some reason, I needed touch up paint and the only place I could purchase it when I needed it years later was from the Acura dealer and it cost a lot more than I really wanted to pay, but I ended up doing so and that is why I have from then on purchased touch up paint around the same time I purchase the vehicle just in case needed. Glad it was not too much trouble and you can barely notice it. Now, hopefully, the thought of it will disappear as time goes by. I find that it took me a couple weeks to not beat myself over the head for damaging the undercarriage on the driver's side even though I painted it and only a mechanic will see the scraping on the driver's side undercarriage.
