This may be the color I will go with. I want something that is almost black at night but is a nice shade of green in the light. What do you think?!

That's basically the same green I've got on my 'Stang! With black primer underneath, it looks black at night unless it's parked under a street light, which makes it look blue. In the daytime it's a deep forest metallic green. The factory primer was gray, which makes the green lighter (and not as good looking IMO).

Here are a couple pics of what to expect if you use what I did (Ford paint code NA).

I went by there Saturday to drop off some LMR seal kit for all the doors and such but they had all the doors off/ trunk but sadly I did not get any pics. Trust me, it will look good!!!! He showed me one of his personal cars he just finished painting and oh man! Paint was deeper than Madonna's vag hole!!! I can't wait!!!

*Update*


Went to take a look at the ol' gal today and everything is going along smooth! It should have some paint on it this week after they finish rolling the rear fenders.

Yup.... http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/hit-me.871962/#post-8764285

Got lucky and my "friends" insurance company did cover the damage HE caused. I had to pay a few duckets to get the whole car redone but what the hell, might as well! A friend of a friend has a body shop. Pricing was good, and I get what I want, so I'm happy!
