Im looking for that awesome blue color, I think its called arrival blue. I know they dont make trucks in that color anymore but do they still make the paint? I should be repainting my truck soon and I would love for it to be in that color.

There was a color called Arrival Blue... I love that color too man. I'm sure you can get it through a dealership, then maybe a custom paintshop could match it pretty close if they got a hold of a pint of it.

The actual piant code is 91U...and you should be able to get jus about any paint shop to mix it in any type of paint....

...............by far the best way to do it. When I had my cowl hood painted, the guy didn't even need to keep my truck to match it.....just gave him the code,and left the hood. Took my truck back in a couple of days later, and had him put the hood on, and the color came out great.......
