There is no Ral colour to match it bud, I looked all through the charts Ral, Bs, Pantone and tbh nothing was close its a green/blue, I ended up doing mine yellow Ral 1021 and it looked bling..

Hi Mate. If you go on the ral coulor chart 5015 looks blue to me. I have just bought a decade and the seller tells me it was done in susuki peppermint green.
What colour is yours?? Might do a trade as i want to strip mine and do it blue. Ill send some pics when it arrives. I will have forks bars frame and seatpost all in peppermint green :)

Yep. I now have a peppermint green decade frame forks and bars and it was of modpimp. Paid 160 all up including postage, which some have said was a bit on the pricey side. I have to say also, that I plan on having it re powdered in blue ral 5015, which I know might upset some but to me, that peppermint green reminds ma of those Lada cars you saw back in the day, which old people could stand up and ride in. ;D
This is what I got:



This is a build which I plan to finish on my birthday in Oct, so wont be powdering just yet. Might be interested in a trade if you really want the green :)

I'd re-powder :) It's already been repowdered anyhow as it's not the OG paint :)
