I am getting some work done but the person spraying my car needs my paintcode, I have always thought my car was Rio verde green but according to the colour list in the tutorials section my paintcode is 377/42L: Cypress Green Mica (99-) unless ive seen the wrong number.
Anyone got any pictures of this colour?
My car:

Also there is two different rio verde paint codes?

I'm pretty sure it is if ur car is older than 1996. I had a rio verde and I'm sure it was a lighter shade than yours.

My paintcode matches cypress green but my car has been resprayed so I don't know if its the right colour.

Are you getting a full respray? If you thought your car was rio-verde then just tell them thats the colour you want?
