Default Your favorite gun metal/Silver color for car color?

Did not know where to post this, this will not be ing on a Z more like a 69 camaro, we are planning to do a silver body color with black strips, with chrome parts like a Eleanor Mustang. but we are having a hard time to pick a good color.

We really like the gunmetal colors alot but cant choose the a good one. We are looking for nice silvers as well that look deep shiny and metallic like the BMW.

My questions is to you guys whats your favorite silver or gunmetal color? Expense will not be a issue. Please add a picture so I can compare!

Also I will need someone later to do a photo shop of the color we choose on a camaro picture I will post on a later date.

again thank you guys your opinions and comments please no negative stuff!

^^^^That galaxy gray is very nice. Not sure if it would be overkill with the metallic on a
'69 Camaro.

OP, what's the overall feel for the car? Modernized resto-rod? Are wheels chosen for the project?

Just don't use Toyota's (Scion's) Flint Mica. They used so much flake it looks like a freaking bass boat.

Flint mica also looks blue, so I wouldn't even think about that.

If you can make a slightly darker version of Nissan's Silverstone... that'd be great. I'll look around some more. I like to refer to House of Kolor paints, as they have every color on a sample shape like the one I posted.

I like the galaxy gray but I can't find it on a car?

I love the cyber grey from chevy, but rumors are they don't produce that color cause the key ingredient that makes it can be bought anymore since the earth quake in Japan!!!! Apparently a company near the radiation spill is the only one that makes this ingridient
