Hey Double,
A huge Congrats on your new Baby!! ON TOUCH UP PAINTS = The paint code you were asking about will get you close. Even a paint code will most likely be off a little to maybe a bunch. Let me give you a heads up on the best 25 bucks you can spend for piece of mind.
Take your car to the paint store (auto paint supply/distributor) and have that stores GURU or (color tinter) match your color. The going rate is 25 bucks for custom tint matching + cost of paint. The TINTER will amaze you with ability to perfectly tweak colors until perfect so the touch ups become far less noticeable. The store will also have little swab sticks that make job easier and better outcome. Be sure to buy some mineral spirits to clean wax and etc... from the area before doing layered touch ups are done. Fill any little chip in layers as it will shrink a bit and sneaking up on repair will give better outcome. ENJOY your new Baby !!!!!
