My car is at the body shop and they are ready to get started. I am concerned about the paint because they said they will do a blend with the rest and I know there ar 2 different shades of atlantic blue. The tags in the door are gone so I can't see the paint code and don't know how they are basing the color. The guy said it's a 1998 color and they can blend it nicely.

Can anyone here tell me which I have based on the photos or if there is an easy way to tell? Hopefully the body shop knows for sure and I am worrying for no reason. I'm pretty sure she's the regular Atlantic Blue and not the bright atlantic. I just don't want her to come out messed up!

Also, I think I might get some additional stuff done since they are painting anyway. Depending on cost, I might get the spoiler holes in my trunk filled and painted, the rock chips on my hood fixed, and possibly an '03 cobra front bumper cover.

Do the 03 cobra side skirts, IMHO i think its one of the biggest subtle differences between the gt and cobra, cleans up the lines soo much. Good luck with the repairs, not to worry you but i had a car go into a crappy shop and it came out 3 different colors with clear coat all over the windshield that i had to scrape off...so just dont take **** from body shops make sure it is up to standards.

Definately Atlantic Blue... I have a Bright Atlantic Blue S-281 and it's a much brighter and lighter color.
