Default ZR1 CYber Grey! Anyone know the paint code and how much it will cost?

Ok im going with a metalic color because HOK is expensive and a Tri stage pearl is also very pricey.

So ive made up my mind, if cyber grey can be had in ppg at a reasonable price im going with it



Anyone care to share info on it?

Don't know the code but if you can do it, then do it, because it will look bad ***

Just wondering what kind of paint it is, im hoping its just a metalic


Im tempted to go with HOK candy color, but its my daily and I want somthing that isnt so expensive.


HOK is almost 1000 dollers for liquids

cyber gray is a metallic. i spray it all the time in dupont and it is dark compared to factory paint. if you are painted the whole car you wont have a problem.

While it's true that CG is a regular BC/CC 2 stage metallic, it is very expensive. The last time I bought it the price was over $200 a quart in PPG Global. It does cover exceptionally well however. You could probably do an entire car including the jambs and under the hood with a gallon.

An alternative to the PPG top dog products would be Matrix, or Diamont. Those are less expensive while still achieving the factory level of sparkle and pearl.

Stay away from the junk paints like Western, Omni (now PPG shopline) and Nason when dealing with metallics and pearls.

There are lots of things you can do to make the NBM pop.
Coarser metallics,blue pearl,flip flop,diamond dust, etc.
This way you wont have to cut the car in again.
