Which colour is this?

Hi all, long time follower on this awesome forum but first time posting here.....
I was out and about in Sydney and saw a new RRS in an amazing blue colour.
I took some photos on my iphone but they really don't do the colour any justice.
Can't seem to find this colour in the Australia brochure or on the configurator and my dealer said this might have been a "one off" as LR used to sell this colour?
I would love to order my new sport in this colour but don't know what to ask for...

Not sure how to load photos so fingers crossed this works....

Very similar to Bali Blue, which was a previous model colour.

I think it is Bali blue. It's what it looks like when the sun shines on it. We didn't know what it looks like because it never happens here in the uk! Range Rover Sport HSE DYnamic SDV6 Velocity blue 2020 MY

Dennis, you must be a car stalker. Only had the new wheels on 24hrs when you uploaded that photo.

Took these pics for you just now in the car park.

Was a real hassle organising it but I really love the colour and agree that photos don't do it justice.
Will try and take some better shots this weekend. If you're interested in the colour scheme, I've sent you a PM with all the details.
And the style 17 alloys aren't available over here in Australia btw. The dealer had to order them over from LR for me. Yet another hassle. 2014.5 RRS, Blue...awaiting Style 17 22" wheels

The Blue is a Hexis vinyl wrap.
I loved the Bali Blue from a few years back and the cosworth blue that Kahn do for their cars but this was the closest I could get to replicating it.

Plus, I wanted something a little 'different', so the vinyl not only allowed me this colour but also a brushed front and rear bumper section and the roof is in the same brushed vinyl.

It's certainly won't be everyone's taste. But I think it sets it apart and unless you're close up, you can't really notice the brushed effect. The blue is a lovely blue on the Sport but isn't too garish and in-your-face unlike some other vinyls.
And in two years when I'm bored of it, I peel it all off and I have a pristine Corris Grey paint job with black contrast roof (May seeeeem like a new car again). 2014.5 RRS, Blue...awaiting Style 17 22" wheels
