I need a color code for the dark metallic green I want to paint my car. I tried googling for it, but no luck so far. Does anyone know the color codes for forest green, or hunter green? I want a dark metallic green. (sorry my server is jacked today, so you can't see the car in my sig)

Or if you know a site where I can view colors with the code.

Looks good to me. Paintscratch also has good info.

I like how that color looks, but it's not metallic as you wanted... going with the pearl green w/o metallic flakes will probably be cheaper, and it will have more of that european racing green, as seen on aston martins.

If there is one locally, go to an auto paqint shop, or even an suto parts store and check out their paint. If you want... I'll be in a neighboring town tomorrow and there is a paint shop, I can stop by and get a paint code for you from there. Just tell me what you want exactly, no trouble at all.

I'm in bosnia, so I can't go to any.. but my gf found a site with Elantra color codes.

http://autocolorlibrary.com/cgi-bin/search/searchpic.pl?2001-hyundai-pg02.jpg

I like the dark green 4 down on the left, and the one 3 down on the right on page 1.
and the Pine green on the top left on page 2. I think it's more between the pine green and the dark dark green.

go to a ford website or anyother car that sells dark green cars and look up the color code from their parts department... or hell, even search maaco or something like that.

This one is awesome. I put in Hyundai, 2001 and got the 34 color codes

And the prime green I like is metallic. So I told my friend to tell the bodyshop that color.

The table I have is from the HMA site. This is for 2004. There's two colors in green:

1 - Celadon Green ( HMA code VL) in a pearl, listed for the Sonata and XG350.

2 - Quartz Green ( HMA code ZG ) in a metallic for the Accent.

Cross- references:

code / BASF / Dupont / PPG / Sherwin-william Martin S


VL / VL / M7824 / VL / 64071

ZG / ZG / P9552 / ZG / 65597

I hope this helps

OK.. finally got my quote... it's going to be 2222.24 What the heck? why not drop 2 cent.. and make it 2222.22 ;)

That's for the BY color code, Prime Green Metallic. (Dark green)
Their high quality paint job, painting inside all the doors, trunk, and hood
Bodykit and spoiler install
New front fender, and dent repair

I think it's a great deal. One place wanted $1600 just to fix the dent. Another 1200 for the dent...

And the best thing, they can start Immediately! As soon as I give them authorization.
