Default Color code needed

I have a 86.5 headed into the paint booth - it is a very dark blue that seems to have a purple-ish shade with different lighting.
The stickers are long gone and I need the paint code...
Anyone familier with this color that knows the paint code?
TIA

Mike do you have a pic in better light or the sun? That almost looks like black with blue pearl in the clearcoat. My car has the "Prussichblau" dark blue that looks purple sometimes, but its not as dark as yours...you may have a custom color there...

My paint code is 33X, by the way.

It would definitely help to have pictures in various lights. Other solution is to have the paint analyzed on the car and have it matched by computer.

That's dunkelblau, or disco blue. It's a 70's era color that looked awful then, and looks awful now. That's why I ground it all off mine and changed the color.

And that is why we all have different taste... I love the color!
If everyone had the same taste in women - we'd all be trying to steal each others wives.
Hey - wait a minute... I have to go check my car.....

Mel Ward has Dunkelblau and it looks awesome on his car. If it's in good condition it looks great.
