Hey,
I have an EF. I want to go for bit of a unique color. I know i want green and am happy to use green from any ford series XR - EB. Can you make some suggestions? :monkes:

The amount of pearl in Envi makes it look dirty and flat in some light imo. Stick with the darker green and add your own pearl, maybe the EL green if you want something non factory released?

Do you want dark green? Light green? Metallic? Gold metallic?
The green on the EF was Heritage. In bright sunlight it looked really classy but it was very dark, almost black, and looked a bit dead in ordinary light. Maybe a mix based on it with a high mix gold metallic added would look good. For a standard paint in green I reckon Congo from the AU series is hard to beat.

I heard that (Everglade Green) was a nice pick. Any idea about it?

Congo was a good green from the AU and i think they had it on the early BAs.
Cheers John

Current color, Harvest Green, not a bad green IMO, I painted a 78 RX7 in the holden green Botanica Mica, thats a great green to but obviously not a Ford color. Is British Racing Green considered Ford now?
