> [@Skinny](#): > > no one likes the black and green eh? I’ve got stock green and will be doing the top black. I love the stock green colour, and I also like the fact there are not too many other people with it…both in the club and on the street in general, but with this being said, I am looking at the tigerdrylaccaanada site now and just may find a new favorite! ---

> [@P.Ruddy](#): > > I am looking at the tigerdrylaccaanada site now and just may find a new favorite! Do they make paint^ or just powdercoating products? You may be better off to just go and cruise the local dealerships and find a nice colour, thats how I would do it, rather try and have a paint guy match a colour sample only to be dissapointed with the results. That and the fact that paint matching is much easier with a factory colour ^when I had this one done, the colour was just released, it was a saturn colour, terragone (now silver-green), and I was very happy with the results, IMO it looked better than on any of the GM products I’ve seen it on. ---

How would I know ? because I deal with them on the regular as that is where I get my Powder from You could use their site “or their colour charts” to get an idea on a colour you may like, but alot of the Colours may have a cristal, metallic or pearl flake in them (which is what actually makes it stand out the way it does) so when you try to have someone copy it in a liquid, it may either not look right, or will cost an arm and a leg ---

did you not see Jedi’s comment about how looking at powder charts is basically a waste of time in terms of deciding on a colour as those are not car colours but powder and matching them will be very difficult. try [dupont.com](http://dupont.com) or [PPG.com](http://PPG.com) (guessing site names) or go to an actual paintshop (in the yellowpages under autobody supply) and spend an hour flipping through their colour books. EDIT: and no, Jedi can not powder coat a chassis ---
