2017 Forester Gel Coat Repairs

I have only had my 2017 Forester 2301 for a couple of months. My storage lot called me yesterday to "inform" me that something caused damage to my front cap. Of course the security cameras don't cover the area where my rv was parked so they refuse to make the repair to the cap, saying it may be my fault. Typical. It's a small cosmetic ding, but it's brand new and I would like to make the gel coat repairs myself. I have done gel coat repairs on previous rv's.
Does anyone know if there is a Gel Coat that matches the color of the Forester White? It's not a fully painted rv, so just a gel coat repair is needed. No paint. I was hoping that since it is new, I could get the factory gel color to match pretty well.
Thanks for any help that you can give me.
Best,
Kirk

A long time ago I remember getting a gelcoat repair kit in the marine world (I was fixing a ding on my boat)...... There were some tubes with it to match the color...... Don't remember brand etc..... may be worth some digging.
