Get the paint code off of the tag on the drivers side door jam.Any autobody shop should be able to mix it for you or spray it if ya take it there. However, keep in mind, the new paint is gonna look a hellofva lot different than what's on the body now.. Most likely it's 2D (med scarlet)...

to really color match a door to the car, you have to blend the fender and the quarter. They reduce the paint on the adjacent surface, so it tricks the eye. Red is a difficult color not to blend on since it is so bright etc. Put what you really want to do it go to a good shop and have them shoot test panels, and spend more time tinting the paint. I would just talk to a couple of shop's painters and ask them about there experience with the color. Some will tell you right away that they have to blend the adjacent panels, other will be willing to try it the other away. Blending realyisn't a money maker for shops, as it averages 1.0-1.5 labor hours per panel (roughly) but that doesn't include detrim time or materials.

Everyone has an opinion, some people don't want to break factory clear, on other colors it is a must. Your car appears to have been repainted, so I would have them blend the adjacent panels, otherwise it would bother me the entire time I owned the car.

im gonna get the whole car repainted in about 1.5 years, right before i got to college, so it doesnt have to be perfect, just close.
