I reckon its identical colour to your last one Scott.

Paul- that looks perfect in there! I really hope I can convince Andre to get off his *Bleep* and fit the twink he has into his droopsnoot replica! I might have to get him to employ me so it gets done!

As far as I know the colour is Le Mans Blue, standard Mk1 GT colour. Just done rather nicely!
