i found

Ford color codes are normally always two characters, i.e. UA, . The codes below can have an additional code after the /. i.e. UA/M6373. In nearly all cases, you can ignore the /M6373 part and just look for the two letter code.

Royal Blue Metallic Clearcoat KM/M6479

Royal Blue Metallic LC/M6833

Royal Blue Metallic Clearcoat LE/M6799

btw.. i didnt go with the KONA (mustang 2010) blue becuase its too nice! and any imperfections will show up since its a 20 year old truck its not gonna be perfect thats why i choose this color

That's a beautiful color Jurg. However, I suggest you pay a little more for prep and body work, you made mention this color will hide blemishes better...regardless of it's ability to hide blemishes it'll still look terrible if the dings, dimples, etc. aren't taken care of. I'm still kicking myself because when I was doing Red, I missed a dimple on the roof before she got painted...while I'm probably the only one that knows it's there it eats me up knowing it coulda been blem free...and it does look pretty bad to me. So I say get the body nice and straight and go with the original color you wanted.

i know what your talking about ben but im not a body man.. ive been saving for a longtime and paying good money to have this done soo i expect the best!

i think ford chooses their color good.. this blue for a truck and that blue for the mustang soo im staying with this blue.. :) maybe just a tad darker but th is is the one i want
