It all depends on the type of green
Harvest (dk green BA) would look awsone with either white or gold with a lighter colour like Zest (BA) maybe a silver or a contrasting dark green.

Silver I guess. IMO, Gold just looks tacky on Green - kinda like Christmas gone wrong.

I ticked none of the above, but for dark green probably gold.
For a lime green, the only real choice, if you had to do it, would be black.

Though your colours, you gotta go black.

Black on a lighter green. I was thinking about this too, mine's toxic and would only really look decent with black stripes. White MAY work too, and that's a factory option from FPV anyway on Toxic.

Just a thought and it applies to any one looking at getting a metallic stripe or decal on their paintwork, Where possible put a solid colour under it.
The reason - If it ever needs removing , to update, or damage etc, Metalised vinyl is far more difficult to take off and if it has a standard vinyl under it it will come off easier with far less risk of damage to the paintwork below.
