what's the difference between Kona and dib?

I haven't seen them side by side. They look about identical. What's the difference in color between the two?

Kona was first, therefore is better! LOL. But seriously, its 6 of one, half dozen of another. DIB is just a lighter shade of Kona Blue. And only slightly. To each his own but if I traded my kona in right now I wouldn't get DIB but only because i would rather have a color that isn't dirty 5 minites after detailing!

Anyone in the New Orleans Metro? I'd show up for that shoot if anyone around here has DIB.

I can do this. And was actually going to. There is a DIB V6 at the local dealership. I will detail mine and get a pic in the sunlight!

Kona blue is a bit darker blue than DIB, and it does have a hint of indigo to it.

That is a good description. I have a 12 Kona GT and my brother has a 13 DIB six banger. I like my kona better, but thats personal choice.

Anyone in Long Island NY with a DIB?

I have a '12 Kona V6 and happy to meet up somewhere for a side by side shoot. I'm curious about this too. I have good camera gear.
