There are companies that will put any paint into 2pac cans as well...

If you just need a little and you have access to a spray gun, I could maybe help you out. I've got some British Racing Green (a dark green sith lots of coarse metallic) left over from squirting my bike. PM me if that's helpful.
Is this thing working? Is this thing on?

As far as I know, the metallics were done by first spraying a silver basecoat, and then a transparent coloured lacquer - green, in this case, over the top. Not sure how close you'll get by doing it with one coat.
But good luck anyway!

I had a Yamaha Bolt C-spec that came with dark green paint.  It wouldn't have been my first pic but it grew on me.  My wife loved it.
