What I do here..... ask a body shop who they use as their paint supplier.  Take the original paint code or formula with you, they may be able to match it up... very likely, it's a tri-stage paint, two base coats and clearcoat.  If you want a single-stage, you can get close using their paint chips.  They can also scan the original part..... My folks can make me up a spray can if it's a small job.
Finish up with a clearcoat if you want more depth and durability/UV resistance.

Another of my problems is that I only started with 60% of a frame so never saw its colour.Thought freedom green sounded ok
Didn't fancy the flake orange or boss maroon.
