Default Newbie Colour request

Hi all,
I'm new to powdercoating, and this forum. I've got a DIY powdercoating kit for coating small parts.
Currently I'm trying to find a colour. It's the Red that is used on Maserati or Ferrari valve covers. It's the same as the red on the Acura Type-R valve cover too.
Here's a pic of what I'm looking for:

I'm rebuilding my Alfa Romeo engine, and would like to put this colour on the valve covers. I bought 2 lbs of wrinkle red off ebay, but it's not quite the right colour. It seems too shiny, and not red enough. I don't think it's the right texture, and it's a little bit too rust coloured. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
