If you go to a paint shop I think you can just give them the paint code and they can give you some?

There is a GM color that is almost an exact match. I have some at home, so I can pull the product number if you want.

Here it is. ScratchFix 2-in-1 GM 440, available in auto parts stores. This is a very close match for the 93 Cobra teal color, and works well for touching up scratches and dings. In such a small area you cannot tell the difference.

Look up the local Finishmaster Paint Supplier and they can take a picture of your paint with their camera and mix up the exact color you need. It will accound for fading and everything, so it's really the best deal going.

Yup, just go down to pep boys or kragen, they should have it. Quick, cheap, and easy if that's what you're looking for.

Maeco, give this number a call. (707) 545-1711.
Shop's name is Hawley's Paint. They are local to me and have always been able to help when I'm stuck like you are. If they can put something together for you I can pick it up and have it sent to you.
Let me know,
Don
