I like the green, a lot actually ..just not the sticker. A Lexus sticker woulda probably gotten it to 'pop' just the same. But all you need now is a nice drop and your good to go!

I dont think the green needed any help popping. It can be a good color, but just not feelin it on a stock car.

To be honest, I'm not feeling it with those wheels or those open calipers. There's a wrong way to do green calipers....

and then there's the right way:
