Non-truck related favor... simple color change

I recently had to sell my baby (jet ski) to buy my NEW baby (motorcycle) and couldnt go another season without a ski, so i bought a hull to build a ski. The paint is going to basically look like the ski below (my old ski, after i doctored the pic up a little bit), but on the new ski, in place of the blue will be the same color green as my truck. i have a little of the paint left from where they fixed a dent in my truck, so they can match it directly to that. can anyone simply take the green on my truck and apply it (even roughly) to the blue area on my ski? the white on the ski will remain white, and i will add black decals and aluminum, and hopefully it will look very sexy rollin down the road behind my truck

thanks!

Perhaps a little darker? I hope this is OK for you. I know it will look 100 times better in "real" life with automotive paint. Perhaps someone else might want to give it a try.

Re: Non-truck related favor... simple color change

that 2nd one looks pretty damn good! on my blue ski i used single stage paint which didnt shine too much as you can see in the pics. with this new ski i will have green shot, lay down black vinyl and then clear coat it, so it should look a lot nicer. just like my truck actually!

Thanks punky!
