Anybody use ChipFixx for LBB?

Hey guys,

Looking to get some touch-up paint as I have a big paint chip right above my driver door just past the A-pillar. Dr. Colorchip seems to be the go-to but unfortunately don't ship to Canada and I don't have a 'repair pro' (according to their site) close to me.
M2/3/4ers seem to be unimpressed with BMW touch up paint, and LBB seems to be difficult to get from the dealer regardless (I haven't checked at my dealer yet).

Wondering if anybody's used ChipFixx.ca for LBB paint - there seem to be mixed reviews on them from various car forums. Hoping they have a good match for LBB, otherwise will look locally.

I used chipfixx on my subaru and it worked great. it worked better if you let the paint harden for 20 minutes+ then use the leveler stuff.

Much better than the touch up sticks that leave blobs of paint.

There is a company in Montreal with exact match in spray cans. Not sure exactly how big the repair is but respraying can give you an invisible repair. You need clear coat and the clear coat blender. You level the chip with filler first. You need to be slightly "handy". But the repair will be way better than Dr. Color Chip.
