ZR1 paint
Is the ZR1 blue paint expensive? I wonder if this color would be a good replacement on my powder blue formula, the paint is faded.

Re: ZR1 paint
Yeah, that is an awesome color! The info Twin_Turbo provided is all you will need to take to the shop to have that color mixed. 3 stage paints are expensive to have sprayed, but not so expensive so as to be cost-prohibitive.
