I have had this car for about 6 months and I want to do a bit of repair work in the trunk...

I bought it as a 'Crystal Blue' So I had a can of Crystal Blue made up - NO that was wrong (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) It actually has L51p on the door shut, but it had a respray about six years ago, so I then obviously thought it was 'Olympic Blue' So I had a can of that made up and NO, thats not it either... too bright

So I'm left with Lagoon blue.. L51c... Now does anyone have a Laguna Blue 914 (I could only find one!!) The colour goes a little green in sodium light, so I thought the "Lagoon" sort of fits (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Some pics -

The panel inside the boot is sprayed Olympic blue and you can see it's brighter.. a more baby blue colour..

I really appreciate your help (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
