I like the 567 blue. That's my favorite Patrol blue.

I think the first paint color card in Toad's post above is probably the closest to the "true" shade of 567 blue ... ???

Related tidbit Leslie:

I found that Rustoleum #276271 Satin French Beige is REALLY REALLY close to PFP's Nissan beige color.
I only found it at HomeDepot - not OSH - so far. And I've only seen it in Satin - not gloss...

So you don't worry, I'm not going to repaint PFP head to toe in rattle can - I just wanted to do the slightest touch ups where the red primer was showing on the driver side fender and pass side roof front corner.

Just putting it out there...

And I love that about PFP - just wanted to hide the red primer - that's all
