Actually the color match should be realitively easy if it's still the stock color... Most paint houses that carry automotive grade paint have all the codes to mix it near perfect. Between that and the fact that the green will spray better than the black or white... I'd go with the green IMO :)

actualyl i found this site that sells acrylic enamel paint by the gallon for like $46 for Metalic Black... I figure that would look very nice... Its not factory matched paint but at this point im kinda thinkign taht i can do this relatively cheap if i set myself up in a clean environment

Why not color match it with the rest of your truck? IMHO I think that is the best looking....just my .02

I'm sure there's an automotive paint supply place near you somewhere and you can get it cheaper than that... Plus acrylic is a bitch to use cause it's so thick and can be screwed up real easy if you over apply... What's that you say, you wanna wet sand for a week?

lol
