Are there any companies that will mix paint up into rattle cans to match paint on a specific car (ie not just using paint code)?

I was thinking about re-spraying my bumper myself, then thought about that the bonnet needs doing badly too, but I wouldn't want to spray the bonnet myself.

sooo how much should it be for a bodyshop to re-spray a bonnet and bumper?

my local place mixes up paint for rattle cans, quite expensive for proper cans as its the real deal, mine cost £10 a can I think or £12.
