Subaru badge color

I know it's blue but just wondering if its WRB kind-ish blue or GSB kind-ish blue ?? I'm asking this because I'm about to buy GSB BRZ and just thought if the paint matches its badge's color then it's a bonus for me .

The logo is closer in color to GBS than it is to WRB.

Well... it's blue. It'll look fine regardless of whatever shade of blue you pick.

Of course, the badge looks better on a white car.

I own a GSB BRZ and it appears to be a color of the badge is really close to GSB than a WRB. However, I'm not so sure about this so someone please confirm this maybe :/ ??

I think it is GSB since the badge appears darker on my WRB.

Swap it for a FRS badge as it's just chrome with cut outs so you can see the base colour.

Scion emblem front. Toyota emblem back. Leave the written Subaru on trunk. Replace BRZ with FRS letters and 86 emblem.


Stand back and watch the confused looks in parking lots.

What's confusing about a Sciyotabaru BRS-86?
