Window Washer

So, I'm an idiot. I was spraypainting my scion emblem on the front grill and back. I was successful with the front, but when I got to the back it all went downhill. I placed pieces of cardboard in between the scion emblem where there was normal car paint so spraypaint wouldnt touch it...well, i painted the emblem and waited for it to dry. When i took off the cardboard one of the pieces was stuck to the car paint so I pulled it off and off came my paint. So i dont know what to do now?? I feel like a total idiot. Any advice before I mess up my paint more?

Next time take off the emblem.

I would just take off the emblem now and get it filled.

What do you mean by "filled?" Is there any way to get touch up paint from my local scion dealer?

Ouch, that sucks man. But I think this is fixable.

If you are a DIY kind of get some paint from Automotive Touch Up (http://www.automotivetouchup.com/) and then use some instructions to paint the car yourself (ex: http://www.ehow.com/how_2083264_touch-up-car-paint.html)

Or, you can always take it to the dealer or shop and they can patch it up for you.
