you can get automotive paint in an areosol can from any paint shop, exact match to your car color for about $20, or expresspaint.com
if you want patterns etc, patterntek is the way to go but it involves you sending them your stuff to be done.

patterntek can get expensive but great quality!! If you should need a custom color mixed I reccomend finish masters. they are a chain and do amazing custom work!!!
