why not put a pearl over the blue, it would hide any imperfections

Yeah the blue evo isn't common on a evo but it looks like the blue on every second wrx. If you think you want a blue I think darker is better but thats just my opinion. The FPV blue is very similar to camels car i think so check his car.

Thanks, we were talking about it at the five dock night, many people think it's a bini colour as it looks similar, but my paint job was done before they were even thought of (12years ago) .. I have a code for the colour as it was a mainstream blue and they added a bit of pearl and whatnot, so it's really a custom job..

Pretty sure it's close to this vette colour:
