Lissa, in your opinion, would you say the panel in the photo was Candy Grand Blue then, as it looks identical to mine, and if they are "VERY different" surely it wouldn't look anything like C.G.Blue!!??

This is the site with the paint code info on, for future reference if you need it.
Well done on the link, judging by the spelling I'm not sure if its US colours??? They have missed out Y9F Pearl Canyon Yellow from the 2000 model, the best colour to have too!!!

Looks like Grand Canyon Blue to me, Candy Jay Blue was hideous!

We noticed when we first looked at this panel that the sticker seemed to be blue, which we thought was unique to the Jay blue, although the panel does look darker than Jay blue.

Mind you, we got caught out like that with our belly pan. It looked like Candy Grand blue in the photo but was Jay blue in reality

A lot of the colours are the same between US and UK, we tended to get them first (i.e Silver) and I don't think the US got the early Yellow (Y9F).

Right, leathers on and off to work now....
