Not sure the dealers sell touch up paint. even if they do would be a fair bit.. you can find your paint code(usually on the inside of your front doors next to your seat belt)...
if you know your paint code, you can go to local auto parts store or even panel beater and they should make it up for u.
If you want it as close to your car colour as possible, try asking them to colour match it, might cost a bit extra - this is more for older model cars though as the paint starts fading over time, but if it's for a newer model car, just giving the them your paint code should suffice. I'd highly recommend getting the paint mixed at a place that mixes paints for panel beaters.
did u try looking on the vehicle identification plates? also try looking on the inside of the door sills. If you dont find it just take your car with you when you go to get the paint mixed up.
You should be able to get touch up paint at Honda dealers. From past experience with other manufacturers (Holden, Land Rover), they usually have it either in small spray cans, or brush on applicators, about pen size (for small stone chips), and they are quite cheap.
Places such as Autobarn also have it – the Easter Autobarn catalogue, which I got with the paper several days ago, states if you take your paint colour code in, they’ll mix you up a can of it while you wait, in different sizes. They say they can do it in spray cans from 100 ml to 4 litres, and 312g (don’t know how many litres that is!) costs $29.99. Other auto dealers such as Repco or Auto One may have ready made cans – I remember it used to be sold in Kmart about 15 years ago, before they reduced the size of their auto section. They didn’t have any for my Honda (or Land Rover), but they had some for a Holden I owned, and I bought a touch up pen very cheaply from my local Holden dealer for stone chips.
Repco n supercheap did have some touch up Paint.
Tell them ur paint code and they'll have it for you
I was considering doing this when I was looking for some touch up paint myself, but then decided just to go directly to a Honda dealer as the colour match would probably be better (probably! wouldnt be 100% sure). Just something for the OP to think about, you don't want to save a few bucks on paint and have it not match as well!
FYI i think a tiny bottle of graphite pearl paint cost me 20 bucks or something from Honda
EDIT:
I have found the paintcode for crystal black pearl, it is NH731P
