Default Back from Paint !Pastel Blue!
So here it is..After alot of back and forth I decided to go a completely different route from my original plan. I am extremely pleased & glad I did something unique. It's a custom mixed Pastel Blue

Looks like it was originally red?

My car is GR and it probably needs a re-spray. I would love to have some other color besides red...Baltic Blue, Petroleum Blue.

Yea mine was really faded Velvet Red.. I didnt care for it. I used to have a Guards red 964 as well, nice color. But these pastel color's suit 964 really well IMO

Well at the end of the day I may be "stuck" with GR as my wife absolutely loves the color. :-)

Yours looks almost like Gulf Blue. Is that what you were aiming for?

Love the color choice, works well with the body style.

Sometimes I wish my GR 964 was in crappier shape, so I could justify doing something like this, ha.
