Default Lime green

Today I saw a lime green camaro 2010 or 2011 either way it looked awesome. Does anybody know the paint code? Also, I would love to see the color on some T/A's. Post them if you got one.

Yeah it is. What I like about it, is that it's not like a neon color or to dark. The only way I can picture it is that its close to a color of a stop like green if you get what I'm saying.

To my knowledge, no TA is painted that color. Just one Z28 that was recently done.

I'm thinking of going with that color when I paint my car.

Photos just don't the color justice. It looks so much better in person. Kind of ugly in the photos

You're right, I saw one in person and it does look great. And I never was much of a fan of green cars so that says a lot.

Same here. I'm definitely thinking about painting my T/A this color. Just not 100% yet.

That color looks freaking sweet in person, it doesn't look good in pics though.

I'm not sure how much this paint costs in the lower 48 but here in Alaska I called a paint shop and they quoted me that this paint is $462.00 a gallon. Thats for the PPG. Pretty pricey. How much paint do you think you'll need to do a whole car? This includes the jams and under the hood compartment. I'm estimating at least a 1 1/2 gallons. I would like to think I could get away with just a gallon but I would hate to risk it. Any thoughts on this and how much do you think it would vary in cost between PPG and Dupont in this color?

It shouldn't take more than 3 quarts to do a car. Maybe 4 if under the hood and everything real good.

This is the closest to Synergy Green that I can find painted on a Trans Am. Please disregard the ghettotastic wheels, it would look killer dropped on some chrome RPM 505's though....just use your imagination, haha!
