It appears as those the skin was replaced at the same time, the valance has not been painted thank god. I assume a small fender bender. The color code on the door is 32c.


And why are all the mods on this board smart asses. Never been to a board where the mods were clicky and rude to guests. I'm on a lot of boards and every mod that posts, always post something samart ass. In this thread alone the are 3 of those posts. Not sure that's how they should be talking to members.

It really is a cool color. It's different in every light. Not many color's do that lol. I don't think we could be any happier with this car either. It's an upgrade from our Protege5 and we loved that thing too. Was sad to see it go. Last night we cleaned it out at the dealer.....lots of memories in that turd. We bought that one new :( WE WILL MISS YOU P5, godspeed! rofl.

Now it looks like Phantom Blue. Must be some editing in the original pic.

It is definitely Phantom Blue. My old sedan could easily look Aurora Blue in certain lighting situations.
