I would get some paint from Brian as well. I know a couple of other vendors that sell "original" color, but I can't vouch for them as I haven't tried them. I got a can of Dark Blue and it was pretty dead on, so I can imagine the other colors are the same. Kind of expensive at $20 or so, but your other option would be to bring a trim panel to a paint shop and have them make you a color...
Also, as far as painting the trim, obviously prep is key. What I've always done is lightly scuff the piece first, and then thorougly clean w/ a solvent, you really can't repeat this step enough, clean and clean again. Some companies such as SEM sell a product specifically for this, but I've always used 90% rubbing alcohol on all jobs, and haven't had a customer complaint in 3 yrs, and its cheaper. Start spraying w/ a very light dust coat, and continue on w/ 2-3 more light, even coats to get your color, don't ever spray too wet or stay in a certain area too long. As long as you take your time, it'll come out great. Good luck
