Default BB Gun ding

Woke up this morning to find out some local neighborhood kids went around shooting people's parked cars, got a couple of BB gun dings that are about 2-3mm deep, 2cm all around circumference. How could I go about fixing the dent and paint chipping as true to paint as possible? It's a Moss green pearl (PNJ code) paint.

Someone who does paintless dent repair may be able to fix it, but I'm thinking the damage is probably too small.

I've had really really good luck with Touch up direct:
https://touchupdirect.com/

i didn't see the paint code on there, but I would contact them.

I did find it here:
https://www.quadratec.com/content/paint-code-library

as far as the dents themselfs, depending on where they are at, if you can get to the body panel that is behind them, you can lightly tap them out with a soft mallet, if not, then a paintless dent repair is what you would have to do. no experience with that personally.

Thank you all, I was able to find the paint (as well as the needles and such on amazon) on quadratec.
