I'm not sure if its a car color or not, I believe the blue is what Cusco paints a lot of their products. Do a google search for "cusco roll cage" and see if that's the blue you're talking about

find a shop that will mix and match, because i doubt cusco will give out their paint code. its propietary to them, like a logo.

thats what i thought, but there are not any mix and match close, only 30 miles away. ive gone to my local paint shop today and matched the colour to every colour they had, and came back to the one i tryed and found to be wrong. this i think is due to halfords crap paints and wrong base/top coats.

round #2, will let u guys know what conclusion i come to

thanks
