Cool Sapphire Silver Blue Metalic

Can some one with the same color car please clarify the color scheme of the 05 Roadster as per the paint codes listed in my signature?

Thank you

PS3 is Saphire Silver Blue, give me your last 8 of your VIN and I'll tell you what your build sheet says

I got these two colours from a VIP Summary report P53, Q53

The info is provided to the Dealer in accordance with section 4 of dealers software Licence Data exchange and Electric commerce agreement with Chrysler Motors LLC

So i wondered if Chrysler may have painted the Roadster in two paint variations..say bumpers different from body panels etc.

The VIP summary report is what I was looking at in Dealer Connect. I don't see anything else other than PS3.

I have a minor dent on my front fender as it meets the bumper cover..While the bumpers are off getting CDN bumper absorbers installed, I thought I would have them repair the dent. It may be possible to work it out with dollys but the repair shop isnt sure.....

The problem I see is getting a true color match should he have to paint the fender. That color looks different in every light and I heard it fades fast...Even the formulae can have varriants, and the mix is crucial. The saphire blue was not listed in the chrysler 2005 paint selection...Apparently it's a 2006 color specific to the Crossfire.

Andy says he will have to mix up the paint and do a color match test to see if it comes out the same.

It's time like this I wish it was black.

Does anyone with Sapphire Blue metallic have any experience or reports regarding color matching paint on their cars?

I had a small area of minor damage on my quarter panel right by the gas cap door on my SSB Crossfire. The body shop I chose I knew very well and they repaired and resprayed the entire quarter panel and blended into the door and roof line and I will tell you I was absolutely impressed. You can not tell in any light that it ever was touched by a shop. ABSOLUTE PAINT MATCH !!
My Crossfire is a 2004.

My roadster has been in the body shop at the Chrysler dealer 5 different times and they have matched the color perfectly every time. The body shop manager did say that saphire silver blue is a hard color to match.
