blue IROCs post pics and paint codes please

im thinking about painting one of my irocs blue, since i cannot seem to get any good deals on any localy, let alone trade one of mine for one. so i need some motivation to start getting the nerve to get one of mine painted. i am unaware of how many differant shades of blue there are, nor if it changes from year to year. but i want 85-90 iroc shades of blue please. there is one that catches my eye but i dont know the paint code

Re: blue IROCs post pics and paint codes please

its hard to tell from the small member pic you have. but the one im painting is an 87 as well. so i most likely will end up with a shade in that year. but i would still like to see all

Re: blue IROCs post pics and paint codes please

I can see the pics and they are beautiful- mine is an '87, same color. But now I know what it is SUPPOSED to look like without New Mexico beating the crap out of it for the past 25 years. :-)

I want to repaint it, same color, with heritage stripes... need to see if I have that paint code somewhere.
