Bay blue is a beautiful color in person (Skyline).

I also suggest sandstone silver (00-05 S2K), or Quicksilver (97-98 supra) if you have the hankering for some color other than blue.

I'm having my crx painted Dodge Viper blue in a couple months. I knew I wanted a dark blue on my car, and I considered Si blue and 350z blue, but I did some research, and alot of the pics I looked at, the paint looked purple at different angles. The Viper blue is blue at all angles
