Very fortunate down here as a local GRP supplier mixes gel coat on site so can create "oddball colours" It's the only safe way to ensure gel colours are constant, as mixing it yourself can and does lead to different shades being created especially with yellows and kawasaki green. Premixed Gel ensures no streaks which is caused by badly mixed gel/pigment and is also as far as it can, guaranteed to be a match.

On saying that it's not a good idea to have a special colour mixed just in case you belt the car and need a replacement part...........keep it simple.
