Default 68 Nova GM door sticker?

Was there a GM MARK OF EXCELLENCE door sticker on the 68 Nova? If so was it Aqua Blue or Dark Blue?

I do not believe these stickers should be found on any GM product before '70. I defer to the experts, however. I will say that this is one of the most prolific stickers misused!

I believe it was actually used earlier...our 68 Nova had one, but, I believe 67 or 68 was the last year on the Nova.

Another good trivia question for Greg Roberts..

Here is my broadcast sheet. Reason I ask is GroundUP catalog web site shows the GM door sticker as Aqua Blue (they call it green) for 68 Nova, and show a Dark Blue for 69 / 70.

FWIW...The decals you buy today are not even close to correct. Even for the correct application, 1967. The NOS ones I have are made of .012&quot; thick anodized aluminum. They are also embossed and come with a adhesive back. The ones shown below, are actually turquoise blue in color. It's very hard to get a good photo with all the reelections going on.
