I think Royal Blue Pearl was 04-05. In 06 Acura dropped it and brought out another blue. (Abyss)?

The royal blue looks a little darker to me but they are not the same. Kind of like satin silver(04-05) and alabaster silver(06+).

Royal Blue is more of a shinier blue. Abyss is more midnight-bluish.

04&05 Model = Abysss
06&06 Model = Royal

Make sure u get the matching color. The difference IS noticeable. Go look in the pictures forum and compare the ABP and RBP pics if ya want clarification.
