Default All Blue Colored Painted Interiors *Post your Pics*

Scion has the same problem as me, we cant seem to decide on what shade of Blue to paint our cars.
I cant figure out a perfect shade to paint my interior that looks good both during the day and at night or on a cloudy day.

I know there are others who cant decide on what shade of Blue (or if they want Blue at all) to paint their interiors with so I thought having a Topic devoted to only Blue painted interiors could help us.

So obviously if you painted your interior pieces a Blue color, post your pics and even any ideas you might have.
(If possible: Try not to have flash on because it can make the color appear brighter)

BTW: Don't forget to mention the exact name of the color in case someone is interested.

Thought Id save you guys some time.

***Please No Haters. Don't waste page space by saying this topic is stupid or if someones idea or paint job is horrible.
If you got a problem with someone or something keep it to yourself and hit the back button or the RED "X" in the top right corner.
Thanks.

it's dupli-color T257 medium blue.

it looks matte or flat because i never sanded it or clear coated it or anything. i was planning to but then it grew on me so i left it alone.

i still may grab a can of flint mica and color match it though. but i have been saying that to myself for about a year.

*Beware of the effect the flash has. Looks darker in person. (Did it in this color myself but dont like it now cuz looks too dark unless in direct sunlight. Now im gonna redo it in a brighter blue.

Heres pics of my own paint job in Nautical Blue. They are from my 2.0 Megapixel camera phone so not the greatest. Sorry.





And yes I know about the orange peel I left. I tried removing it with 2000 grit sandpaper but it started taking off the paint on the edges and other random spots so I just decided to not do it anymore.
