I want to paint my garage door to match my WR Blue Scooby

Its moss green at the movement and you know what they say about blue and green,

It should never be seen.

Well I don’t want it to be Subaru yellow and blue with stars all over it, so I thought about matching the blue any Idea what the nearest gloss colour match is.

It must exist as they paint Subaru dealerships that colour.

Or should I perhaps contrast it with another colour, it’s a double garage door and the car will be in front of it posing.

Can't you take the colour code into a paint suppliers and say you want that colour but in a type you can paint on - brushing emulsion? Or take the door to a sprayers

Or find the nearest RAL colour code and any paint place should be able to make it up.

Hint / my kop-out statement: If you're looking at colour charts, examine them in decent daylight rather than some dingy office with tunsten / fluorescent etc lighting and also colours on your monitor might not be the same in real life unless it's colour calibrated etc. May be worth having a swatch or small pot made up to try it on a bit at home to see if it's what you want...
