Post Painted brake question?

Well I finished painting my brakes last night and the finish turn out better then I thought with about 6 coats on it. But I was wondering is there any way I can make a paint that will match the red on my truck exactly, cause the color is a little off. You can only tell when you up close to it though. I'm posting pics tommorrow of my own little event.

You didn't mention how LONG you wanted them to match.

Any paint will bake/cook and change color.

I never thought about that. Good point, Maybe after a couple of laps around the hood the brightness will fade a bit.
