I had my paint matched at a local place when I did the car. Used the inside of the trunk lid, placer gold came out perfect. You need a flat spot with At least 8 inches across. Unless the tank is good, where would they match it off of? For the bike I just go to the paint store, pick a color, and have them add enough flake(in my color choice) to blind most people.
Old colors are tough too because of the lack of lead. Really helped the deepness of some of those colors and sometimes the paint you get that should match, won't.
