OEM guaranteed to match vs no name brand that claims to be the same color. $32 vs $9, your choice whether $23 is worth possibly having a different color paint on your car. You can always be the guinea pig and let us know how it goes!

I have the OEM product and I've tried it. The color is a perfect match and when done properly with wet sanding, you can get a rock chip disappear like it's never been there .

NEITHER!
Just go out into the woods and find the rare herbs required for proper pigmentation after crushing and mixing! THINK, ITS ALL FREE!
Who needs super expensive ($20) touch up paint for your BMW?! NOT ME SON! NO SIR! I mix my own fuckin' paint!

This is exactly the reason why I said I wouldn't go with either one...because I know I do not have the skill to do it properly. If done wrong, it will look like small blobs of paint on your hood or wherever that's too visible. I rather go with something else such as Dr. Colorchip (???). Used it before, much more simpler to use than touch up paint.
