Time to pick a color

[Kiko_Jones]

I've completed the LS1 swap and had the Transmission rebuilt. Now it's time for paint. The original color of was Emerald Green Metallic (WA 177B). Very 90s generic.
I'm not looking really for a color change but more to punch it up.

Any recommendations??

If you want to stick with green, my vote goes for a candy green. I desperately want a vehicle to paint something like this

I'm partial to blues, but I wouldn't be upset if my truck was Emerald Green!

Are you doing it yourself?

The factory emerald green could be really nice when it’s new and fresh.

You can always add a pearl or different style of metallic flake to that factory color to give it something different.

I'm having it professionally painted. Adding Pearl or Flake was something I was considering too.

I want to stay with Green but want some "PoP"

The emerald green is seriously overlooked by enthusiasts these days. With a fresh repaint, ample cure time, and a professionally applied ceramic coating you would have quite the looker.

This guy shows some experiments with a bunch of different paint. Pretty neat to see how different things have different effects on the same paint.

An "updated" emerald green would be awesome.
I always loved that color.
I'm liking the idea of adding a metallic flake, would definitely pop. Classy and modernish, not to dated.

I’m going to have to avoid this thread. Mine will be repainted, probably white. But I’d love to have green. Wouldn’t look right with my burgundy interior.

White with copper flake.

To the OP, somebody on here repainted the factory green, and it looked amazing. Seeing it fresh, and new, really makes a difference.
