Why didn't you just look until you found Dark Emerald Pearl? Yes, that is a true color which most auto-shops carry in rattle can. I know there are at least 3 close colors to it, but they are just off a little bit. Next time just search for Dark Emerald Pearl in the can. Just a little more flake than OEM DEP, but the color is identical :coffee:

.

By the way, lip looks great man!

i agree get the OEM mixed paint in a can...

if you do it with dupli-colour believe it or not it will stand out in the light like a sore thumb

you'll prob pay for a can of DEP paint maybe $20-25... strongly suggest it

yea i tried looking for that and all i found was emerald pearl(which was very light) but not deep emerald pearl.. and they told me they didnt have that color. so i just picked whichever was the closest and it matches pretty well. thanks btw how did u get your lips painted?
