This paint used to be sold by Hobbylink Japan but they No longer carry it nor will they be in the future, I have a Fujimi Spinner I'm planning to complete & I will add electronics & plan to paint it accurately...
So Im looking for options, any help is appreciated...

You could always get a color match at your local Home Depot. Or get the proper RBG scale for an exact color;)
 
If you have a napa auto parts near by, they can do colour matching in spray cans. If you have a large enough sample, say something sprayed on a 4*4" bit of plastic, you should have no problem matching the colour.

Problem is I don't have a sample of the original Color...
 
I'm hardly an expert, but perhaps I can put Cunningham's Law into good use for you and state that in the back of my mind I recall that there was a very close Toyota color called something like Seaside Blue (non-metallic). A paint store color book might confirm.
 
I don't remember the exact number, but it was identified as a Toyota blue. If you can research that you may be able to get close at least.

Someone is bound to be producing a similar paint like those companies that reproduce classic car touch-up paint.

If you find the correct color but can't use auto paint on your model, you will have the right color to match at least.
 
its a long time ago now so cant remember why without digging out all my research but the inertia had a slightly darker metallic colour from the outside
