what have you got to lose....if it costs you a lil money to go test mixin paint for fun, who cares, id rather spend some money mixin paint for a free paint job than mix paint for free and have to pay for the job
also the blue below is beautiful, i forgot the name of it but maybe try addin metallic or pearl to this

You gotta do something unique! I like SOM, and NBM, but there are so many things you could do with the paint to make your car really unique and stand out. Don't do something gaudy, but don't do a stock color.

I saw a 69' Camaro at a car show that had HOK paint. The color was amazing, it was called, Brandy Whine..man did that color look amazing. It gave the car so much depth, I want to paint my car that color.

the only thing i have against a custom color is that if it is ever damaged again then youll have to redo entire thing, not really anyway to get mix perfect again... i just went with a gm color but it wasnt available on camaros or trans ams....gunmetal metallic and i love it! ill post pics later its only 3 days old..
