Chrome Silver vs. Silverstone
I just wanted to know your opinions on both of these colors. For example, negatives and positives, and which one you'd choose based on these aspects. Hope to hear from you guys.
Personally, I have a CS but I think both colors look great. It's a matter of your liking a darker or lighter shade of silver. I know this sounds like a simple explanation but I really do think they both look great. I opted for CS because my other car is dark gray and I wanted my Z to have a different shade of gray.
Below are some side by side pictures of my car and a friend's car so that you can determine which shade you like better.

Rear shot (btw, these pictures were done to show the difference in height drop as the silverstone has a .75" rear and front drop with a Tein coilover system and the chrome silver is stock height):
You know, Silverstone actually looks silver. Not grey, like most have stated. I love the CS for it's reflective capabilities, but SS is just as good. So hard to choose. Silverstone would make me stand out a little bit more, but CS also looks excellent.
P.S. I had a CS performance model, and am upgrading to Track. One of these two colors will be my choice, and I really don't know which one.

I'd Mod each one with different set up, One NISMO, one Borla, a Stillen Z, Lambos, ECT. hehe
Check out how Silver my CS TRACK looks here.

The first Z I saw was Chrome Silver and I originally planned on getting one. But after seeing the Silverstone in person, and as time pasted, I changed my mind.
I love the SS and how it appears to change color depending on the light. In summer, on a bright sunny day; it appears almost as bright as CS. On overcast days it appears a dark gun metal gray. But my favorite time is at sunset on a summer’s day. Just after the sun sets the color is just perfect, hard to describe.
But you can’t go wrong with either, SS is my favorite Z color and CS is my next favorite.
(Of course, they are all good!)

Silver stone all the way plus its to many CS on the road. The SS reminds me of how my Pikes paint is like Marhot said about the SS, it looks like a different color depending on your light setting. Major plus for SS!
