I'll get a better picture. They are as shipped from Norwood, I used a custom mixed black with Lemans blue overspray on the bottom and white overspray on the firewall.

that would be awesome, I'm about to spray my floors and have been torn, my current thought is black/gray PPG Concept GM underhood mix and trying to decide on overspray, your car looks awesome

Mixing the paints has been the most time consuming part of this project. Thank God the black car is around for direct reference.

After prep I shot the black mix, 2nd was gray primer over spray, finally I shot the Lemans Blue overspray.
***If the car were a style trim car it would have then had Blacked out rockers the over spray would have then covered a good bit of the Blue and gray over spray.







The non style trim cars X77, X44, have what appears to be more color but actually they are just missing the blacked out rocker over spray.

Thank you, these pictures are very helpful, I can now see why the blue overspray appeared gray, I would never have thought to use gray primer over the black yet under overspray color.
