Ok, when my car goes in for a respray i was originally going to keep it the same colour as it is now (metallic arden blue)

heres a pic





But i have been having second thoughs and decided i want to keep it blue but want to go for a darker richer blue.

If people have some suggestions to which blue would look sexy on it, please post pics

its going to have irmscher front airdam with fogs, irmscher rear skirt, and steny sideksirts as the bodykit with a semi smooth boot and bad boy bonnets.

Someone is thinking about getting the 2.8 v8 vectra vxr at work and had a booklet on it today and it was a GORGEOUS blue but i can;t seem to find pictures of it on the internet, so if anyone could find that and post it would be great!

So should i change the colour or keep it?? help, lol!

Vauxhall have a colour on new Cs, think its called Energy Blue, far deeper than Arden.

Also MG Trophy Blue is similar.
