Honestly, Take it to an infiniti Dealer and have them do the paint match.

Where are you located? If we knew where perhaps someone could inform you of a good paint place in your location.

I used quality body works the other day on my IP sedan (probably the hardest color to match) rear quarter panel and I couldn't be happier. This body shop was recommended by my Infiniti dealer.

probably not if you cut out the middle man... if you go to the dealership alot of the time they will charge you $$$ and then pay less to the actual shop and keep the difference (they do it alot with aftermarket stuff like remote starters and video screens)

you need to find a good painter that can tone up the color to match very very close and then it needs to be blended so you will not see the differece. good luck
