Can Anyone Recommend Spray Can Color Similar to AI Green?

Hello! I have some of the new AI skins in black. I wanted green but the wait was too long so I figured I could just paint them. I've also considered having them dipped, but for now this is a cheap and easy way to change the color.

My question is, has anyone tried to replicate the color of the Green AI skins? Can someone recommend a spray can color that is a close match to AI green? I've found a few colors that I like, but I would really like something as close as possible to the AI Green.

From what I've been hearing, it's gonna be a long time before the thumb hole replacement skins will be available, so this will do for now...

Thanks for the input!!
 
Rust-Oleum makes some great flat camoflage patterns that are very reasonable and you can grab at Home Depot. You may want to give those a try before ordering something. I have done several of my stocks with them and the paint holds up very well.

Thanks! I actually picked up the Deep Forest Green Rust-Oleum and it's not bad, just a little darker than I would like. I may end up just using it along with the matte clear coat.
