Colors 120-130

Well... the rustoleum color that I wanted (regal blue) is not available in both spray can and gallon. I painted a lot of the car with a rattle can



It came out pretty blotchy. I'm doing the hood and the other side with the "$50.00 roller paint" approach The color is coming out at lot duller, so the final color may be a bit less cobalt and a little more navy. It will probably come out a little closer to the original midnight blue than I first intended. Regardless it'll still be way cheaper than a professional job and look way better than the primer color it has been since the front bodywork was replaced in '05.




That *is* the same car.
