Default Best GREEN for dc2

im painting my integra soon, the color now is cypress green pearl but i want a better looking green, ive seen alot of nice ones in the a/c form, i cant afford to paint the engine bay, but door jams and stuff will be painted, so im pretty much looking for a nice green that will blend in welll with the cyrpess pearl green.. when i pop the hood so its not like 2 different colors

so show me some pics of some nice green cars out there

thanks!

Can you post a photo of the engine bay clean so we have a photo reference for what you want to have it somewhat "blend" with?

I know some colors don't look quite the same on the body as they do in the engine bay.

hiroboy.com is where you can buy a small amount of the paint. it's probably gonna be hard to find the actual code for aston martin racing green, but get some of that 'model paint' and shoot it, then have it scanned maybe.

It's not really called Aston Martin Racing Green. It's Almond Green Metallic Clearcoat (1339).

http://www.astonmartins.com/db7/db7_gt.htm

Here it's called Aston Martin Racing Green and appears to be the same color.

I think that any green is not a good color for DC2.

Olive drab is my favorite shade of green.

That Aston Martin car is hot though.

More Opinions Please !

I will be doing almost the same thing to my cypress green integra. (painting the exterior, but not the bay)
so I am also looking for a dark green that wont contrast the bay too much maybe something w/ a little more pearl in it
