I agree with the others saying DupliColor or your GM dealer. Actually the paint GM will sell you is just relabled DupliColor paint, anyway....

Another option that I've had good luck with is http://www.paintscratch.com/
Good luck! You can just pick that old stuff out of there and start over fairly easily.

Oh, I did that, I just think it'* hilarious (and rather unprofessional) to have incorrect listings for the year.
I also think $24.95 for a 12oz can of spray is a rather spendy proposition.

Like I said, they merely realized 93 is an old and outdated year. :P (But only in your case)

I rarely use them, anyway.... mostly if I'm trying to get specialty paint for a VERY old vehicle (meaning 1980 or older) and then I have to identify it by the color code, not by the model of vehicle. Their mixes always seem to come out spot-on, though.... so I'm not complaining.
Just because their database is incomplete, doesn't make them unprofessional; but I agree it would be nice if they were more complete (to make it easier sometimes). You can still order by paint code, though.

Good luck with the repair, I know tri-coat can be a real b!tch to match.
