I agree Steve. The two dark blues look stunning with the white or silver striping. The bottom left has a little more pop to it... top right, a more classic look... I think thats my favorite of all the blues so far.

Originally I wasn't considering any blues. As I stated before, I've had many cars in that color range. I've seen only two VRs in dark blue... none in light blue . Didn't like either one. The color seemed to hide the graceful lines of the car and made it look short and stumpy. Additionally, one of those cars had the rear brake vent filled-in, giving the rear a large bulbous feel that was disproportional to the rest of the car. However, neither of those had any striping.

I painted the brake vents the same color as the stripes in all the blue cars. I really like it on the dark ones. I also split the single stripe on the sides into two stripes, in order to tie in with the dual strip down the back. Added benefit.... it looks like side pipes.

Shelby's Datona coupe had similar colors. Ironic, if I end up going this way, since the Daytona was built specifically to beat the 250 GTO. I better take a look at what the rear would look like.
