Matching paint....

Alright, I need to paint a piece of plastic on my car, it is rally red
I went to a place to see about having them mix paint they said that they cannot guarantee that the color will be 100% on...well, as you would imagine I need to make sure that it is as close to 100% as possible if not 100%

any suggestions as far as where I could get some 100% matched paint?

Well, I think the only way you can match the color is by your vin number. Is it evo?

A tree branch fell in the path of my car one night while it was raining and chipped the paint on the front bumper. I bought touch up paint from MACHV.com and it barley looks like it was damaged at all.

If the plastic piece you said is separated, then 100% it should be fine, and you wont tell the diffferense.
