Pedal enclosure paint work ideas -Tahiti coral

What's Hot
I've currently got an unfinished rotosound style pedal enclosure that's drilled which I'm wanting to use for a fuzz project.  I've got it in my head that I want it finished in Tahiti Coral like this:


I usually get my stuff sprayed by a local car paint shop and just get them done with whatever colour repair work they get in at the time to save costs.  The only issue is this colour isn't exactly the most common car finish.  Fiat do the 500 in a coral pink which would be ideal but the chances of one of these coming in for work could take months/years:



Anyone know of any other options to get this colour finish applied to a pedal at a sensible cost for a one off application?

    Find such a Fiat locally, key it (not too much mind) and leave a note saying "Really sorry, scraped your car with the pushchair, I'll happily pay for the respray" and leave your number on it.

    Obvious really.

    Rattle can paint is so very easily damaged on pedals, but could etch prime, then colour from a can. Then take it to you car place and ask them to clearcoat it in 2k.

    Halfords will mix to a code, but you do need the code - or choose something close off the rack - or get a can made up at an auto paint shop. Repair guys often pop in and get a rattle can made up if they only need a small bit for a repair. And they should be able to fnd a code. Or leaf through their chip books to choose a colour.
