yep, Bretts, still looks differant. there is a couple of different mixes though. I found that out when i went to go get some touch up paint

Car went into the panel beaters today. Didn't feel confident with them paint matching off a picture so i just went with BT2. However I spotted a Toyota Rukus on the road in 'Voodoo Blue' (colour code 8T6), and to me it looks exactly like Calsonic Blue.

What do you guys think?

[JimmyRickard]

The Tru Blu Falcon looks to be the exact colour:

If anyone has any idea how to track this paint code I would really appreciate it. Need to give the sprayer a colour next week. Thanks guys!

PS-30 or PS-3

[JimmyRickard]

Do you know what the name of that paint code is? I found the DJR code and it's Skyish Blue 17539 code AT Ford commercial 85-86. Going to Bathurst this weekend so I'll be able to see it in the flesh

If you want to go matt black, why not get the car vinyl wrapped.

[JimmyRickard]

The idea has been to paint it blue for a while now

[asps91]

Haha my bad

[blue_vl_t]

mine in blue, its not a standard colour, but good for a reference

[JimmyRickard]

Looks great! What colour blue is it?

[babyskyline]

Nice 32 gtr. Also want to know what colour blue it is???

[blue_vl_t]

hmm, i have the code, but its not model specific, ive been told it was a subaru colour originally, not sure its true though, i cannot find any cars in the same colour, but thats kinda cool.

[JimmyRickard]

Got another look at the tru blu DJR car and I'm convinced it's the colour I want. If I give the sprayer the right colour code, is it guaranteed to come out the right colour? Never dealt with spray painting a car before so i want to know 100% it will come out right.

IMHO Satin black only works as a wrap as you have to change it when you wash it after a while.... seen many euro cars in europe with this problem.

[TM7GTR]

seen many euro cars in europe with this problem.

mind blown.

[LWO]

mind blown.

Haha... well I have. Not seen any Jap cars in Europe with it... nor any Euro cars in Japan with it. Now you point it out... my bad.... I am a little derailed some times.

OP sorry but what about Porsche Riviera Blue it looks sooo good as a colour in the flesh... (not the best in the pics but awesome and sort of looks midway between the colours from the falken cars which also look uber cool).
