Green FD color requests...

it does not seem to be a popular color but isn't there any nice green FD's out there? I don't mean lime green, metallic pimp green, or even forrest/BRG green. I was thinking of a non metallic deep kelly green or something of that nature. Has anyone out there done this or is this just plain wrong....I'm so tired of the basic colors....

similar to RE Amemiya's Super G green? http://www.fd3s.net/diffuser/re_amemiya_pro8.jpg

or like the Porsche green?

or are those more lime? like you werent going for.

i had to look up kelly green, and i think thats similar to what you meant? ive always loved the RE green and contemplated painting my car it. however, with the lack of sponsors to sticker it up with, it would look a little more ricer then racer in my opinion. plus you cant really top brilliant black.

Talking thinking about a mean GREEN machine!

Thanks for the pics guys. The pics of the older Porsche and RE car come the closest to what I was referring to when I say Kelly Green. Those other cars including the FD and the Porsches Gordon posted are more of a forrest green.
Keep the pics coming, maybe someone could photoshop a FD in Kelly or Emerald green for me I'd love to see a visual of this. Oh, and you green haters let it out I want to hear your opinions as well.
Right now I own a silver R2 and I love this car but silver seems like a dime a dozen these days!
Gordon, I do love your idea of Aubergine as well.....toying with that possibility as well, but it seems too close to black......

Cheers.....

it might be together in a few weeks. it needs a good bit of buffing since obviously i sprayed it in my garage. i still have to spray the fenders and bumpers, picking up my burnout rear on monday hopefully. its been really slow im working way too much.

Cool. Can't wait to see the finished product. Nice to see something different instead of another gray/pewter/titanium grey color of the moment car...

mean and green

keep the pics coming 7syawedis! Color is very close to what I was thinking. Why all the stickers of the rear window? That car is looking clean. Keep it mean, green, and clean!

Saw this green colored saturn on the road couple days ago, thought it was a different shade. The color looks better in person but this photo is close.
