I lost the LH rear fender for mine like this. Beautiful tribute and nice handiwork..

Thank you, @Justin Hart. It is quite interessting, how much darker the fenders are because of the darker base color. Because of that, I guessed, that it schould be a transparent color over all.
I think this color is very complicated to paint to get a homogeneous look on it. I tried this once and failed. Respect for that.

@Christian W yeah it can be tough. It was about 5 coats of green for the lighter section and 3 for the dark section. Something that helps is after the coat I just lightly go over the whole part slightly randomly so as to prevent tiger stripes.
