Touch-up paint

I just sanded and primered some rust bubbles on my GSL. It looks pretty horrible, but it saved me a lot of cost in the long run. Does anyone know if there's a paint company that makes the touch up paint in our factory colors?

My car is the first gen gold. Not sure what they called it though.

Chances are the paint has changed color for exposure and the origional mix won't be an exact match. Just take the car to the paint store or body shop and they should be able to match the color in it's current state.
