hi i need to think of a colour to respay my car in... im not going for a two tone or a flip or anything. i was originally thinking either a pearl or focus RS blue. but now im thinking i wanna keep it vauxhall
so basically can people please post up pics of STANDARD vauxhall colours, doesnt have to be a corsa, any vauxhall! ive seen some sort of dark blue on an astra at the local vauxhall garage...
looks lush!
same as the 888 astra (or whatever it is) i also like the bluey/greeny colour of the corsa GSi...
anyway pics and names of colours please! thanks!
---
also when getting a respray what else shall i colour code? obviously arches and bumpers but what else... door handles, scuttle etc

LOL, whe I first bought the car I thought it would be cool to de-badge it. Unfortuantely you could still see Vauxhal, Corsa and the Merit badges cos the paint had faded sooooooo badly!

Corsa is Ultra Blue, Astra is Europa.
I personally wouldn't go to Caribic or Arden on a B.
If you want a Vauxhall blue that no-one has used yet, ask for Impulse Blue - as seen on a few of the 300 Monaros that'll come over this year
