What color to McLaren F1 GTR

Hello all

I need advice what shade of blue is the McLaren F1 GTR Le Mans GULF of the 1996. The instructions from S27 is shown that it should be blue metalic. According to the photos it certainly is not metalic.
Thank you for your help

Re: What color to McLaren F1 GTR

You are correct, the '95 car was a darker metallic blue, the '96 car is a solid color. I know MCW here in the US has the correct color but he can't ship to you, sorry. His color chart list the same color for the Pilot Ferrari F40 if that helps. Comparing my jar to Tamiya sprays looks like it's a little darker than TS-44 and a little lighter than TS-15. Probably a little closer to the TS-44.

Mike
