I'm sure on a tiny chip on the lower edge of the wheel well that "close enough" will be ok...

Actually, I was very surprised with the results of the touch up pen. It looks very good. FYI, the pen has paint on one end and clearcoat on the other.

Call a Mitsu service/parts departement. They have the factory matching paint for every EVO color. Run a search for factory paint codes - so you get the right pen. The pen is direct from Mitsu, and not a body shop mix.

I had the Mitsubishi touch-up pen, didn't match well. So I just bought one from Auto Zone and did the trick.
