Need Duplicolor paint color suggestions..

I'm moving into the next step on my Fenderbird build and it's time to decide on a color. I've decided that I'm going to use Duplicolor spray cans, but haven't yet decided on a color. I'm thinking about something along the lines of a cobalt blue. Does anybody have a suggestion for a cobalt blue-ish Duplicolor? Or any other colors that would work on a Fenderbird? By the way, I'm using all black hardware and a vintage tint Allparts Jazz neck.....

I always try to find a car color that looks like what I want. In your case, Porsche has a nice Cobalt blue.

You can buy the aerosol can here for $20:

Porsche paint code 56.
 
I just did a Blue to Red Duplicolor job on a paisley bass. Since half way between blue and red is purple, you see more purple then anything else.

But there are some cool forest greens and flaming chartrueses that come out sometime.

If you google duplicolor and go to their home page they have all of very guud consumer info pages, and example pictures that people have sent in with their own projects.
