Alpaka Beige Allroad - Touch-up Paint?

Any of you Alpaka Beige Allroad owners find touch up paint from Audi? I went to my local Audi service desk (Clair in Boston) and they showed me that Audi of North America does not show Alpaka Beige as a color that they have for the 2001 Allroad's. If this is the case, has anyone had to have their Alpaka Beige Allroad in for cosmetic surgery and if so was there a delay in getting the paint from Audi? Thanks for your input!!!

Paint ID

In the past, I've had communications glitches with Audi on paint (names change but colors don't). You might find the info sticker on your car and get the alpha-numeric code for the paint, and call ClairParts to see if they have that. (The first place to look for the sticker, as I recall, is in the spare-tire compartment.) HPH

there is no touch up paint... It's a pearl effect paint that contains over 3 types of paint...

I've checked too =) I've heard of some kind of "3 paint can process" but I haven't looked into it yet... I guess that's the price we have to pay for such an awesome color!
