Any good auto paint supply store will put sell you computer color matched paint in a rattle can for about $25. The shop will scan the color and computer match it to the color that is on the car now. Don't go by the paint code if the car is old, the paint always fades to a different color.

The only down side is that the paint is soft and won't last much more than 2-3 years, but if you are good at prepping for paint and know how to color sand and polish, the result will be perfect, if only for a short time.
