Curious to see what color Matches Greddy Annodized Purple Best

I'm undecided on what color to have my valve cover powdercoated. I would really like it to match Greddy Type S valve cover color, but it's hard to really determine from a photo

So I'm undecided between:

Dormant Purple


or

Translucent Violet



Main reason I bring this up, is after seeing Troll's Supra Calipers at the 1320 meet, I want that color.

Thanks for any help!

Do you want AC to work in your SR swapped 240? PM me to find out how...

Hey Cody,
Troll's calipers were done in dormant purple. Thats the closest match in my opinion and is a real hot color. We just did about 15 pieces for a turbo Honda here in that color and looks real good. Let me know if you would like to stop in to view the colors in person.

Thanks for the response!

That color looked awesome! I've long wanted to find a powder that matched that annodized purple look, and that was pretty close. I'm unsure if I want to get anything else in the engine bay coated, but I most certainly will be sending you my other sr20 valve cover to get coated/polished letters :D
