OK, I have to ask - why are you painting just one panel?
Do you plan on painting the entire car at some point, and, if so, do you plan on taking all the panels off the car to paint them?

Only place I have seen it is on eBay. Use Google and search for "WA400Y touch up paint".

I have a bottle of shark grey touch up paint that I used about 4 swipes on a piece of paper. It is factory Gm touch up paint with the pin roller tip and the brush. 15.00 shipped. I can do Paypal or credit card over the phone. Pm me if interested.

Sometimes with automotive touch up they don't have the right name or car even, but the codes are the same. If you're ever in doubt, they answer emails. The last can of long beach red I got was labeled a Buick color, but it was a perfect match.
