Still LSB, with a PPG paint mix so it's a little stronger than the factory mix. It looks darker because I had my camera set wrong so I had to bring down the exposure in another program.

I found out the same thing with the medium steel blue mettalic on my contour ... the PPG paint is alittle darked then stock, but it works.

looking great, can't wait to see it finished

Thanks all. From seeing in I'm pretty happy with how it came out considering what I paid and to what a full repaint with the amount of bodywork it needed would've cost me elsewhere. I took everything a part minus a few things he handled and I scuffed all the pieces. I was going to mask but he ended up doing that part. There's no waves or runs in the paint that I discovered, just some bits of dust here & there that he said he was going to get out. But for a car going on 9 years with 110k miles it looks new again and that's all I could ask for.

So for anyone willing to take a trip to New Hampshire the place is Blinn's Autobody in Plaistow. Just don't tell him you're not in a rush!
