Dick, I don't know what the color is called or where it's from. A couple of people have told me their Explorers are the same color, but on closer inspection...not even. It's sort of a silver metalic midnight blue.

At work I have a great set of photos of what happens when you don't regularly inspect the fan blades. It's a Chinese 747 that ingested a bird into the nacelle. The nacelle and the blades were badly damaged, but in order to keep flying they secured the fan with wire & duct tape and flew the plane on 3 engines.
