Help finding green caliper paint

I have searched high and low and cant seem to find anyone who makes a dark green high temp paint I could use on my calipers. I have searched everywhere from online to local hardware and auto parts stores. Ive even tried to locate the weber bbq grill green paint. I have no luck. Does anyone know where i can find some in dark green?

thank you. Thats actually a nice color, the only other green i saw was this bright neon green from duplicolor which is pure rice. Are there any other options?

I use Plasti-Kote Truck and Sport Utility spray can # 1518 ( GunMetal Metallic) with no issues... Prep work is a must... Also used their # 391 Primer....

No issues for 3 years now...

Might be an option??? http://www.plastikote.com/plastikote/auto/

Your best bet to get the exact color you want is to take them off, disassemble them, and send them to a powder coating company.

You could try contacting the nearest Lamborghini dealer. They always know the places to get anything and everything done. I've seen leather and caliper colors I didn't even know existed. All custom, and done after the factory.
