Yes, go to your dealership and pick some up. No need to call 911.

Wal_Mart

There's a touch up tube that I've seen at WalMart. I think its no more than 5 dollars. You may want to consider that.

There is a thread on applying touch up paint. Do the search. And if you have recently bought your car, you will receive a free, complimentary bottle of touch up paint from Mazda. It just might take 2 or 3 months for them to get it to you.

What do you mean by "they charged me in full?"

I got my free touch up paint from Mazda about 6 weeks after purchasing my car. You'll probably get your's in a few weeks too.
