Ok, does anyone know the name or paint code for the dark blue color offered on the 2002 Euro/Aussie VFR? My bike is need of a paint job (thanks to a bicyclist that ran his stop sign and a roadside gravel driveway) and I really like that color. I found a page that has all of the Honda MC paint codes I just dont know the name of the color.

Its this color here:

Nope, wont do it. I did a rattle can job on my SV650 track/beater bike but I wont do it on the Viffer. She is too classy for that. Besides, I dont want to join your little flat black cult. You're lucky you are a fellow LEO otherwise..... :cool:

My '04 colour code is PB-332P according to the sticker under the seat. I am reasonably certain that the colour is similar. Might be darker in the '02. Check out my photos to compare.

Thanks. I like that color too, and incidentally I DO have that paint code. I was torn between the 2 but I have decided I want the darker '02 blue.

I too like the Blue, and if I was any good at painting I would consider it myself....except most of my Gear is now Red :(

You know whatt, I dont know now. After looking at more side by side comparisons the newer blue looks pretty good too.

Well for all you bums that couldnt help me I finally found it.

I found out what the color was named, then I found a chart that had ALL of Honda's paint names with the codes. So after much scrolling I found it.
So.... for future reference if anyone else needs it, its called Lapis Blue Metallic, Code PB-257M :)

So I am a bum for not doing your work for you.

You HAVE to be a government worker.

It is easier to work with, but it doesnt have the Euro colors on there. If it does, I couldnt find them.
