Hyper Blue Paint dash

Re 2006 Mini Cooper S Hyper Blue Interior

I recently got ink on the dash on my Mini. The dash panel above the glove box

Detail shops couldn't polish it out

Mini Dealer wants $120 for the panel painted Hyper Blue
Local wrecking yard has Hyper Blue but will only sell the 3 piece set for $125

Is there a aftermarket spray paint that comes close to Hyper Blue?

According to YouTube this panel just pulls out. I see 2 torx screws on the bottom. Any tips to remove this?

There are numerous sources for custom mixed rattle cans on the net. You simply enter your paint code and click away. Your results will depend on how good you are with a spray can. You might get lucky or you might make it worse.

your color code is A28

I've used this place for years ... color match is spot on to ORIGINAL color .. if you have color fade there's no real cure for this ....

this is 'real' auto paint; that means two part system of base color topped with clear

so you need to order both

there are application instructions on the site ...
