It's car stuff. There's a lot of mythology about the colors, including some pantone colors that get repeated over and over again on the interweb.
People often default to royal blue, cyan, red or purple, cyan, red. But the blue is neither royal nor purple. It's more of a saturated periwinkle -- or dare I say, indigo. And the red isn't crimson.
People buy decals here to make a replica of a rare car. The geometry is good, but the colors are wrong. Since I have one of the rare cars, and need to replace some decals that have been lost to racing incidents, I'd like to reproduce the colors that are on my car, if possible. The original decals are NLA (no longer available), unless someone has a crate of new-old stock hidden in a warehouse in Munich.
