Im going to test it on my sub grates first since they are pretty well disposable before I do it on any interior parts. Iif I dont like em. 2 new sub grates with cost me about 10 bucks if it looks like crap, but thanks again for the advice, Ill surely look into Dupont or PPG if it doesnt work

not all can paint is bad. A friend of mine recently purchased some cans from paintscratch.com and said it worked great. I even think they have a garuntee on it matching or they will send you a new batch. You might be surprised.

I have used the Envy Green from ExpressPaint. I would def stay within the recommended temp range. I had trouble with the clear drying too fast and not having a great shine on some parts, but the paint is great I have used a lot of there paint and other than the clear several time all came out well.

Also on a side note for you rattle can painters, if you use real paint that you spray thru a paint gun you open the door for doing other parts that you can't cover with a rattle can. It's that simple. Something to think about...............

well Ive got a couple coats of NV green on the sub grates took one out and laid it on the hood and the paint is pretty well a dead ringer. Seems to be a C-hair darker than the exterior paint, but Ill have to look at it finished and in the interior before I make a decision
I also did the badges since I de-badged, it to see how it looks, Im happy either way, if the paint doesnt work, a de-badged box is fine with me too. But the badges look pretty killer with NV green too
Will see how the clear coat is later tonight when it cools down some
I was mistaken on the price
It was 21.95 for the paint and 7.95 for the clear coat
Thanks again for all the advice

Update
Did the Sub grates, and badges
3 coats paint, 3 coats clearcoat
Absolute perfect match after drying
I looked under sunlight, Incandescent and florescent, pretty tight
"for a rattle can job" LOLOLOL
Ill rub out tomorrow
So far so good

pics?
leave the badges off!
I did find a brand new H2 badge on Ebay, in the GM bag that Im thinking of adding to the left side opposite the XB badge
I think the H2 badge with the mini hummer plate will look cool
