I bought a complete set of tail, tank and fender from the Netherlands last year. The color is quite stunning in person. Dark teal-blue-green that goes more aqua green in the sun. It is not a USA color. Not in the WIKI. Not at colorrite.com. I recall it is 1998 or 2000 vintage. See the picture of the tail plastic. There are no parts stickers on the pieces.

Anyone in Europe know what the color code is or can look it up on a European parts list? Any parts list I've ocated here doesn't cover European parts. The printed one I bought from Germany isn't new enough for this color.

It isn't the teal that you see in the full fairing photo, just so you know. And what is the teal? That is another one that appears not to be a USA color, though I'm not fond of the teal.

That's a 1999 color.  The paint code is Y0V.  It's called "Marine Blueish Green."  Here are a couple pictures of the full livery--enjoy:

Also, the TCP fairing looks like it would be 27J "Ocean Blue."

It is not the teal.
I have determined (I forget how, now) it is candy forest green  color code: Y98
Not used on the GS500 in the USA.
Possible it could be YOV.
