Default Paint color question

how do I find what color of green my car is? I went to AutoZone and found a Forest Green Pearl color for jeeps but it isn't mine. It looked pretty good from the color of the cap but once I sprayed it, it was off.....I think there are 2 other colors of green if I'm not mistaken

I think mine is a little bit darker. If I wasn't so embarrased by it, I'd take a pic and show you. Kinda afraid of what it would do to my camera. I like how your's sits tho, pretty sweet

i think any car being 15 years old it going to be hard to match the paint exactly, because paint fades after time.
