Trying to pick a Blue
Going to repaint the vette soon and trying to pick a blue. The car was originally Dark blue metallic and I really don't think that stands out enough. Sherwin Williams mixed me up a custom bright blue with pearl and flake, but wow is it bright.
What do you guys think of Ford Sonic blue or that Infinity Blue I see on the G35's. Are those over the top?
Post your blue cars.

Chrysler had a nice color called "electric blue" in the late 80s and early 90s. Think royal blue metallic. Someone recently posted a picture of a mid-70s C3 painted that color and I really liked the look.

Chrysler had a late '90s - early '00s color I really liked called, Patriot Blue. Very deep rick color. Maybe a bit darker than you want but it's seen a lot on Durangos and Grand Cherokees.

That's right Sam...even on your Cherokee. Speaking of Navy Blue...did you enjoy that Rams game Sunday? I wish I would have made it to that one...very exciting game. Seahawks lost too, so the Rams are tied for first place in their division. Woooooo.

The problem with Electron Blue is Pat painted his vette that color. He and I would have twin cars with the LS1's. On the other hand, Pat paints his car every winter.
