Default 06 IF owners - Paint question

Anyone know which paint manufacturer makes the factory paint for L40 - Interlagos Fire?

My front bumper was just replaced due to a defective gate at work. The body shop (same one that did my brother's jeep, did a really nice job) ordered Dupont paint ($200 a quart!) in L40 and guess what.... It doesn't match. It looks close, but in the sunlight its quite obvious the Dupont paint has some blue flake mixed in and it appears a darker shade of purple depending on which angle you look at it.

The body shop is standing behind their work and they will be repainting it until they get it spot on. Just wondered if any of you '06 IF owners knew where to source factory-matched IF L40.

Thanks in advance -
