What I did was found a place that mixes paint and puts it into spray cans. Give them your paint code and you should be good to go...

Paint code using serial number or should i contact Subaru for Rio red code?

theres a paint code on the vin/model etc plate in your engine bay(at least on BE/BH)...i think mine was 3 digits.

The BD/BG's also have the paint code, along with your VIN and engine code, engraved into a plate in the engine bay next to your battery. You can also visit http://www.paintscratch.com because they use the Subaru color/paint codes.
