Quoting chvtec33:
How about Porsche 911 GT3 RS green?

That color works on that car because the body style is aggressive in the first place. IMO, unless the car either looks like that Porsche, or is a racecar, more understated colors should be used. The GVR4 just doesn't have the body style to support such bright colors. Like it or not, it's a four door box. Trying to make it stand out by using colors that "pop" just make it look bad.

I like that olive green on the S2k that KC posted. Civic color is nice as well, if not the same?

I took this pic today after waxing the car. It really shows the depth and how just using the different metallic completely changes the color, in this case darker. I would just play with the factory paint code and mix up some different sh*t and spray it on some test cards to see how it looks.

Mark, I thought you had a home-made rear window visor there for a second, then I realized it was just a mail box. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
