Question How do I fix this scratch on my case?

[alont]

I recently got a new computer case (Asus AP201). as it turns out, my cat absolutely loves to perch on top of the case and gnaw on the corner with her teeth. When I'm in the room, I'm usually able to stop her before she causes any significant damage but recently I left her unsupervised for a little too long and she managed to scratch the paint off the corner of the case quite severely (see included images). at first I thought I might be able to get a new front panel, as most of the damage is there, but so far I haven't found any retailers selling parts for this case (I'm not in the USA). if anyone has any suggestions on ways I could fix this case (what product should I use to touch up the paint so it's less noticeable?) I would highly appreciate them.

Good thing it is black if it was white or some other color it would be impossible to match.

The problem with paint is not going to be so much matching the color it is getting the shine correct. If you hand paint it there will be brush marks and if you spray it you will get over spray that will show at certain angles. Really no different than fixing a hole in your wall and repainting. You end up having to paint a very large area to hide it.

I would take a black marker and see how close you can get.

If that case is like mine and it vents out the top the cats do a excellent job of blocking the air flow when they sit on top.

Thank you. I don't have a black marker at hand but I will go buy one maybe tomorrow and post my results.
