Ok I got impatient and setup a temporary booth. Just gotta tack it again and spot check then clear, I love this color as some angles it looks like brickyard green(nsx color) but then it iluminates in a fiery blue/teal

That looks incredible. I didn't know if I would like it but with it fully installed it is a resounding YES.

Thanks alot Steve!

I looked at alot of valve covers in the valve cover thread. I saw a lot of blues in yellows that looked wrong because of such a harsh contrast. Green which comes from yellow and blue, and is the undertone helps make it feel more natural surrounded in yellow, vs being two primary colors.

Primary colors(yellow, blue, red) dont go well together, but primary and secondary colors are great companions

Anyway, now the car has my two favorite honda colors ever BG33P-2(Paradise Blue-Green Pearl) and Y52P(Spa Yellow Pearl). I'm pretty sure J's Racing loves this color too as this is their teal, they just don't use a pearl additive.
