Cool man, i'll take a look. thanks!

EDIT

Just checked out his truck...that color isn't "purple" enough...this is such a tough color to try and match because it has a purplish hue in certain lights.

You're best off ordering some swatches but check these out. I'd compare them in person.

The first couple are damn close... I would order these personally. Or mix some Intense-blue and Illusion-royal together and see what you get.

So. Many. Powder. Links.

If you can't find the right shade, get ahold of prismatic and see if they can't help you out.

Or go to your powder guy and hold samples next to your truck and see what matches the best.

I think you might be right, that is looking pretty damn close.

I don't have a powder guy yet. Trying to get my ducks in a row first.

Keep in mind pictures on the Internet will look different than in real life. Trust me on the samples.

Oh for sure man, I just wanted to have baseline of what to look at. I hate going to shops and having absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.

That Bentley blue looks good!

It is looking pretty similar in those pictures!

Call some of the shop that do custom work on quad and such. They will have people they go to. They will know who does good work
