Blue confusion - BBY vs EBP
Is the 05 color called "Electric Blue Pearl" the same color as BBY?
The Mitsu website depicts 05 EBP as a steely blue, but, IIRC, this same color depiction was used when the color was called BBY.
Thanks for fielding my question - you guys are the best!

well when u search - use the search the correct way - type in "electric blue"
and on the bottom right - click on lancer evolution forums only - or else u will get threads that will come up in other sections like off-topic, photoshop forum, regional forum, private for sale forum, etc.

i was going to show the diff w/pix, but the 100kb file size llimiter blows and made the pix hardly worth showing...the EBP looks more like civic SI blue with the pearl in it while the BBy looks more like a cell shaded blue.....much lighter in the sunlight.

I own one and can post pics. but not until later b/c I won't be at home for a while. For the record, the BBY was nice but too light in the sunlight. The EB is a hell of a lot better, the only time you get the purple effect is when bright light is directly shinned on it. The EB is almost a chameleon paint color in that respect, it's sweet. My avatar might work but I'll post pics. later.

A little low quality pic, but you get the idea. Electric Blue in front, my Blue By You behind it.
Electric Blue is darker and has little metallic flakes in the paint and looks sorta purple in dim light or at night. BBY is a brighter flat color.
