I didn't know you could use lowes paint chips for youre vehicle color

They can match anything just like Lowe's can match a sample for your house paint. I used a lowe's paint chip to get my blue - winter blue or something like that. I have the old chip strip in my console in case I ever need to match it again.

Be careful of the lighting when you look at the colors. Look at them outside in the sunlight since that's where your bronco will be. It's a amazing the effect different light bulbs have on colors.

I like green broncos - I like the teal shade of green on them.

Do you remember the dark green Bronco parked next to me at the Bronco show in TN?
It may be in some of the pics I posted here.
I thought that looked really good.

If you have a NAPA close by, they carry alot of sample colors including the HOT HUES.There are some nice shades of green.
