This color is awesome. I just called my supplier to see how much. Well....turns out there is no formula, they have to order it in factory 1/2 pints. It adds up to $648 per gallon. Then you need to buy a primer that they can mix so the color will look right, or they can mix another paint (kind of like a sealer) to be sprayed on before the paint.

The price of that paint kind of chit cans my next project....or at least makes me change the color.

Go here, and find the blue one.

Even better in person. You HAVE to see it in person. Imagine this on a notch with FR500's or some other sort or wicked spoked wheel.

Here is a more realistic picture, being it's someones car and not an advertisement.

For sure in person....lol I was eating Chinese with a friend in the summer and I saw a Cadillac drive by with that same blue (It's an extra cost option on all of GM's high end cars) I had almost dropped the egg roll out of my mouth because the sun was hitting it at the angle that was just siiick!!

I'm not real big on blue but if i were it'd probably be something like that unless i went old school with the grabber blue thing. Why can't they make a crazy color like that with black?

It may involve a 32V Cobra motor and some sort of Mustang that I don't even own yet.

I want another notchback, but I don't want to do that big swap again. A guy has a nice 92 4cyl roller for sale cheap locally, but I just hate living at work. Too many hours and hours and hours. I got rid of my black car to do just that....GET RID OF STUFF!! haha. I don't need 3 stangs again. I'd hate to sell Hack Job.

I had a 92 LX hatch with bimini blue which I think was a lighter color and more metallic than this but very siimilar. I like it!
