			keep in mind that you can not accurately judge colors via a browser and monitor.  you are guaranteed to end up with a different color.  you need to get a real paint chart.  about the second best thing you can do is look at paint charts in the rags.  even they are tainted due to the printing process.

			Okay, it's not a water-cooled VW metallic light blue, but you might want to consider "River Blue Metallic" (LK5V).  It was a one-year only color (1979) used on Super 'verts only. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	It looks very nice in person. (It is different from "River Blue" (L50Y) from an earlier VW year.) I would consider it for my GL except I have a friend from childhood who happens to have a rare '79 River Blue 'vert; so for me, it would be tacky.  |
