look at the green on that 911 gt3 rs. i have an old 911 turbo body that i got with my new ntc3 that needs to be painted, and i was going for something different, yet still around the colors of porsche. can anyone give me a hint on if theres a color like it, or what to mix maybe?

That should be easy. Just get a regular green like Faskolor Green or even Createx neon green and then get some white. Get a paper plate or something and just work on mixing the 2 to get the color you want. Just make sure you pay attention to the number of drops of green as compared to the drops of white. That'll give you the overall ratio and you can scale up from there.

so if 4 drops green+4 drops white= the green I'm looking for, to get it in an airbrush it would be like 60 green and 60 white?

Parmas Key Lime is very close to that color, it may be just what you are looking for.

You can always add some white to lighten it or even yellow to make it more of that sublime color, or both if needed. Just experiment like Candyman mentioned if you do need to adjust it. But it looks real close as it is.

the sublime color reffering to the porsche color?

How about that orange, i can mix the color and hold it up to the actual car but i wanted a good base color to start from.

For that orange I would probably start with Fasflourescent orange.
