Audi S4 Touch Up Paint (107 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Audi really went for it with the S4, recording a massive 73 colors over the years. You have the legendary "look at me" shades like Nogaro Blue Pearl, Imola Yellow, and Misano Red that defined the early generations. Then, of course, there is the more modern "Fifty Shades of Audi" era, where they mastered every possible version of grey and silver, from Nardo Gray and Daytona Gray to Quantum Grey. Whether yours is a bright standout or a stealthy sleeper, there's no denying the S4 has one of the most iconic wardrobes in the car world.

What to Watch For

To find your specific shade, skip the driver's door-Audi likes to hide the goods. Head to the trunk, lift up the carpet, and look for a paper sticker near the spare tire well or on the trunk wall. You're looking for a code that starts with "L," like LY9B (Brilliant Black) or LY7G (Nardo Gray). In terms of wear, keep a sharp eye on your bumpers. The S4 is known for clear coat that can start to peel or flake at the edges of the plastic trim, and because these cars are built for the fast lane, the hoods are notorious for catching "road rash" (tiny rock chips) that look like a silver constellation on a dark paint job.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many S4 colors are heavy on the pearl and metallic effects (I'm looking at you, Sepang Blue and Phantom Black), your touch-up bottle is essentially a tiny snow globe filled with metallic flakes. Do not just give it a quick wiggle-shake that bottle for at least two full minutes to wake up the sparkles, or the color won't match the depth of your factory paint. When filling a chip, use a toothpick or the very tip of the brush to apply thin, "whisper-light" layers. It requires patience, but building the paint up slowly prevents a tall "blob" and ensures the repair sits flush with the rest of the panel.
