hear me out...
i know this is about to get really nerdy, but i saw this and it gave me an idea. my little cousin has this toy car and i though some version of the paint scheme would look kind cool. the toy is brown and the green is bright i was thinking maybe like a dark green/black for the main color and have the green highlights be a few shades darker. it's just an idea but let me know what you think. i think it would look good if done correctly to fit a camaro. minus the purple thing on top and the the roof would be body color not the highlight color

Re: hear me out...
It'd be a nice color scheme, but I'm not sure I'd want that on my daily driver since I'll probably get tired of looking at it daily. But its your ride. I currently have black "Hot Wheels" stickers on my windows!

Did you really just call that the "purple thing on top"??Ever hear of Transformers??
Sorry, I had to call you on that. Anyhow, as to your actual question everyone's opinion is going to be different. Personally, if what I have in my head is close to what you have in yours I think it will look good. I'm not really a fan of green, but I think a slightly darker green(possibly metallic/flaked) with gloss black would turn out nice.
Maybe try posting a pic of this car and yours(from the same angle) over in the Photoshop Requests forum and someone can apply the paint scheme to your car and you can see what it will look like without the expense and labor of an actual paint job. I'd do it for you myself, but my Photoshop skills aren't that great to begin with and the computer I had it installed on is down right now(hard drive died).

Ever see the green on the 4th gen TransAms? That is the shade I was thinking of.

Re: hear me out...
Here is the best pic that I could find of the color I'm thinking of. Not the flame, the base color of the fender itself.
