Paint Job (Prt. 2) ...

I'm down to my two decisions now. I can't decide.

this metallic blue (if i can ever find out the exact color of this one):


or this gunmetal color (I can actually picture my car this color):

the blue gives it kind of a stand out wild look and the gunmetal gives it a clean yet sweet? idont know if thats the word but yea i like them both but i think it depends on what kind of a look you are going for

Gunmetal is definitely my color. I wonder if that is some special gunmetal or if that's just a straight gunmetal from like PPG with several clear coats. Anyway, I've decided to go gunmetal thanks for the replys and posts. They have helped out a lot!

Don't go Gun Metal, because that's what I want to paint my car (gunmetal/pewter).
