My code is 28L and would like to know what colour blue it referes too . About 4 years ago I walked into supercheap and picked up a can of spraypaint for touchups that looked that close Id have to point it out for you to know the diffarence ,think it was a holden colour but do you think I could remember the name or code .;30
