Thats easy, go down to Home Depot, they wiill match it and put the paint into arosol cans for you. Its Black Candy Crimson on the lids and inner fairing, for the other Black Crimson parts, just add 1 Pint of Choclate Milk to One Quart of Black Candy Crimson.......Presto!

I had to have the Emerald Green on the front fender of mine touched up, got a fair size chip because the paint is so darn thick, anyway the paint shop had this gizmo that matches the paint. Did a great job can't tell the difference between the "old" paint and the touch up.  Most good paint stores have the same gizmo and some can put the paint in a spray can.  That would be a good place to start.

[highlight]Se I posted this in the bad paint section I had my bags scan with an optical scanner and this is what they came up with.[/highlight]
I was told to take my bags to a color match store where they match and mix paint to get an optical scan done.
