Go to the Parts counter at your local Chevy dealer. They should stock it.

I would go to a good body shop and have them mix you up a pint. Or if any of your local autoparts stores specialize in autobody supplies and mixing paint, they can do it too.

Body Shop, it your best bet, they will get the color to match much better than the over the counter touch up!
