Any automotive paint supplier should be able to get the paint in any colour you desire. They have large computers and catalogues full of paint codes relating to manufacturer and shade of colour, they'll mix it, tin it and sell it. If you can find the code for the paint and give them that then they'll be able to mix up a tin of it, or they may be able to do it from just the name of the colour too by cross referencing....

Or take in a panel and they can match it
on some cars you can take the fuel flap , or the colour coded mirror
on a mini it is usualy the bonnet that is easiest to remove/refit
