Supposedly these sites can supply you with gallons of signal green. It should be a pretty easy color to create.



On a Manta, I’d go with red, blue, or green with the black stripes. I love the look of the TE2800 with red and black.

Is that a black hood too? I bet that looks very nice. Do you have any pics of the front.

I'm not a fan of most yellows (I know, my avatar is yellow but it's because my GT is still yellow), but I do know what would look killer on a Manta with with the black GT/E graphics. Imagine this...

But with Chevy's shock yellow paint.

Also, the Manta GT/E never had this option but I know Strato Blue with the GT/E graphics would be sweet. Combine the Blue Max with the GT/E.
