Audi's Nogaro Blue.

I really don't like WRB but then again maybe it's because I drive a Subaru too and am tired of seeing World Rally Blue Subarus with gold wheels.

maybe it's just the picture.....Looks like you cut the bumper a bit to make it fit the tail pipe poorly. You should fix that up b4 paintin

That subaru blue seems to be very common around although i'm not in the US so that might not be so true there.

I forget the name.... it's an acura color... Abyss Blue Pearl, I believe. I'm too computer illiterate (lazy) to find and post a pic, but check it out if you want.
