exact colour of L lenses?

[ron chappel]

hi
I want to paint my 18-55 lens white for a joke but L lenses aren't really pure white are they.
Can anyone make a guess at the colour and tell me (in RGB mix)?
I thought of saving a pic of one off the net and eyedropping it to check the RGB but i think mi would prefer actual owners opinions :)

I believe you need to use equal portions of green( too much money to spend but you do it anyway), red (cause it feels like your pi-sing blood when you pay the credit card bill), and pale white(the color of my face when I check the price at B&H).

:lol: :lol: good answer scott :D
on 2nd thoughts it's prob a silly way to do it anyway.What will i then do with the RGB?

I'll just go check out the dupli-colour racks at the auto parts store i think....

i'll also get L stickers made up to cover the old ones...or should i give it a green ring and put DO on it :lol: :lol: :lol: .It is very compact :lol:
