Respray, which Blue?
«

Hi Guys,
I am planning to respray my mk1 Cab.
It is currently in Helios Blue and not too sure whether I should stick to the same colour or go for a different blue.
Any ideas/tips? Which Blue would be best suited for this car?
Thanks

Personally I'd respray it the original colour then there will not be such a mismatch between bits that dont get re-sprayed like the engine bay, floor pan under the carpet and maybe the inside of the boot etc.

Helios blue will always be a desirable colour and will always sell.ÂÂÂ
As for my cab colour, you probably can't see the colour properly in my sig as it's actually pearl green. Here's a pic that shows the colour a bit better but it's not brill. I actually wanted a blue rivage originally and couldn't find what I was after so went for a green one instead.
