Green Powder Coat Suggestion - RAL 6017?

Any one have a bike with powder coat of RAL 6017 built up? I've seen the samples but it's always difficult to gauge without seeing it built up on a nice frame. Going on a 650b+ drop bar with all black components.

Neat Frances frame for example:


Or any other green powder coats (not paint) that you want to show off!

Also, what Chris King headset goes best with green? I was thinking Mango or Turquoise.

Thanks!
Chris

I had my Waltworks powderd green. This is a Sherwin Williams powder called tractor green. I liked the color but the actual powder job sucked.

Yo Chris! If you dig the green from the Black Mountain Monstercross v3, you may want to hit up Mike Varley.
I think it was wet painted in Taiwan but he has all the RAL numbers and what not.

RAL 6010 Grass Green is very close, most of the visual difference is due to the gold flake clear on top.

Reseda green

RAL 6011...This was my choice for the 29+ that Adam Sklar did for me... might be a bit more utilitarian then what your possibly looking for...
