Post Lexus 202 help

Ok my paint supply guy tells me that there were two different 202 paint code options for me. the first would be 202 from 79-94. this black consists of a little blue and white to counter the clear that sometimes gives you a tint. the newer 202 does the same but uses a green instead of blue. has anybody had the two to compare? which would you use? or can you even tell? Also my car is'nt already black so matching wouldnt matter i just have to pic one to do the whole car.
Any help would greatly be appreciated

Post lol

i have thought about is-f blue but my interior kept me from going that route. im just gonna go black, just trying to figure out which one was better but i guess you probably cant tell a difference. here what the car looks like and why i think black would be better.

rear emblems have been shaved except fot the 'L' since

i think the blue tinted one would be better..
if there is sun on it, i would rather have the little tint of blue rather than green

Post thanks

i wanted to ask you because ive saw this pic before and i also knew you had the two but i just posted. thanks on the info. i really didnt think it would matter or differ but wanted to ask.

also the green in the black or the blue doesnt show in the paint or even noticable id imagine. i think its just there to counter the yellowing of the clear that makes the black look dirty.................forget it i cant really explain but i understand what the guy was sayin just didnt know if you could tell the difference. but SCboy thanks for the info.
