Some shops might have a color reader. I know Home Depot's paint dept has one, but the color codes it spits out I think are only for house paints, not automotive. Anyway, a shop that knows what they are doing <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> should be able to match the color well.
