For those following this thread, i'm curious what you would think of this metallic green for the Bronco?

Just some random pics from a friends body shop and they are laying down a metallic green on this car.

Nice shade of green. Is it a gold or silver flake in it? Looks mostly silver, but the top pic throws me off a bit.

It has three shades of green, a very rare flake of gold and deep blue is also thrown in.

Unfortunately a nearby tree had dusted yellow pollen on the car, so I was battling to get a pic of it without being able to wipe the freshly-cured paint prior to pics.

A quick MS paint close-up crop of the green. Note the pollen at the top is easier to see as it appears to be off-color specs on top of the paint. That's also on the brighter section, throwing off the color a bit.

That's a nice looking green.

Is it a custom mix your friend did or one of those specialty/custom mixes from a place like PPG/Dupont/House of Kolor?

It's a retired and rare Porsche color. No custom mix and not an especially expensive paint if you were to go with lower quality brands than what he uses.

reminds me too much of my schwinn stingray from 1970, too much razzle-dazzle in that flake.
