Replaceing and painting hood

I gotta replace my damaged hood. I can't find any year 2000 i30t brown color hood.
The alternate is get the color that's available and paint.
Can you paint it to look like an old brown hood?

It would require very skillful blending and application that would cost more than your car is worth. Thats pretty much as complicated as spraying gets. Itd even be cheaper to just repaint the entire car than to try and get it to match old paint.
