Check out ford celebration green. There's some lively looking green fiestas about that might fit the bill.

thats my little baby. its also kawasaki green. it depends on how good your painting is i used half a leter of kawasaki green paint but i based it up with some old toot i had in the cubored. so mabe about 1.5 leters or maybe 2L so you have some for touching up. any paint shop should do it to be honest try a diffrent one your bound to find some one who does it. maybe get the yellow pages out and ring a few places

right... what it says on the tin is


"Kawasaki green b/c *0054"

Iv actualy no idea if you can take that code to another mixer if im honest... im no body man and i just went through their colour charts looking for a nice shade.... there was quite a few which were rather similar

well its agg put it that way if you have to do a repair in the future you'll have to paint the how car again as you cant fade in pearl. i like i said its mega expensive were i went they wanted £600 for all the paint and perl to do it. when you can get 2L of paint for £40 i think its pointless lol

ye true 600 is abit excessive, i do like kawasaki green. Im going to use white primer so it is as bright as it can be :)
