Why is Light blue so hard to find

[CrammerGram69]

Other than the soft parts (cloth & vinyl) & dash, everything else can work. Malibu's could/should have the same side window trim. As fleming442 said SEM can custom mix a batch to match. PPG is my source as I have the PPG color codes for the color & in both low gloss & semi-flat mixed.

Now this is why someone needs to donate me a '78-'81 LeMans coupe. I'd take a Grand Am coupe too so I don't look stuck up.

I have a friend in Kentucky trying to sell his, Hardtop but needs some Rust repair.
Factory V8 car with A/C I think.

Lemans rear plastic first and Malibu second...

Not quite the same angle but it should show the difference..

Get in line, brother.

I think the Pontiac's lines flow better

If you need an exact match the SEM company offers a free color matching service. Ive sent stuff to have matched a few times and the woman that does it is amazing. You sent a part thru UPS. The color is usually done in a day or two. Then you get the part sent back the same way. The woman (Ann Zolle) can email you the formula to have the color mixed by a body shop supply or you can buy a qt right from SEM.
Im not sure if youre trying to get it in an aerosol but it comes out real nice if you use a spray gun. Even a cheap one would work. All you do is mix it up in the can. No thinners or reducers needed. I sprayed a bunch of stuff for my friends '79 Camaro in the color youre trying to find.

I don't have any of the Original parts in the Light blue, They where all Painted over in Red, Then I screwed up finding the right color and they are a really ugly blue.
