Any good paint shop in an auto parts store has a computer to color match your paint. We use Dupont. They will have a color code right from Mopar or they can take a picture of your jeep to make a perfect match. (taking into account fading and such)

Feed a baby a jar of Gerber's strained peas.

Shake the baby gently for 5 to 10 minutes.

Have the baby puke into a can of aluminum silver paint.

Mix well. Viola! Rescue Green!

I actually like the color.

I have steel blue. Years ago my 2 year old daughter drank most of a 16 oz glass of grape juice before she went to bed.
Guess what was in her diaper next morning?.....Steel Blue

HA HA...

I had my choice down between the Steel Blue and the Rescue Green. I chose Rescue Green, and I can even admit I have described the color as "metallic baby puke green."
But I really love the color I chose, despite what I can relate it to.

Since day 1, my mom has referred to the color of my jeep as "baby vomit green" when describing it to someone.
