I've used the computer color matching system from Sikkens Paint, and
it really works well. I painted the trunk and front aftermarket spoiler
for a faded yellow '73 Capri, it matched perfectly. Faded paint is a 
real problem here in Florida, having a computer matched faded color saves
having to paint the whole car, or have missmatched paint.
