Default Dark shadow Grey or Cyber Gray

Should go with Dark shadow Grey, Cyber Gray some other type of dark grey for my WS6. I think the Mercedes and Aston Martin have nice grays to. I am looking for something dark and deep. The car is pewter right now.

Dark shadow Grey



Cyber Gray

Cyber gray seems to be the Fad. So why not.

I think due to not having a factory 4th gen color to the level of Gun Metal, DSG, Cyber Grey etc etc we are just dying to try it out.

I am a HUGE fan of blue, when I saw an Electron Blue Ws.6 T/A I near blew my load, it looked so good and would be a color id consider for a complete repaint if that ever happend.

Its a win win! Both colors are great! Either one you pick will look good. I have been thinking of doing it to. I had an 89' S10 w/4.3l did it a custom charcoal gray and it was such a nice color. A dark gray will be so much easier to keep clean than black!!!!

I hope you do it! and post the pics of course

If it was me I would flip the coin good luck

i like DSG of the two, but since you mentioned it, the Aston Martin Meteorite Silver is pretty nice too.



i do agree with blackscreaminmachine, if i was doing a repaint, it'd be in blue though.

Meteorite Silver on the Aston Martin is great and pricey considering the it is only available from PPG. There DBC line (#912044 Paint Code) will cost close to a 1G for paint and clear. I plan on going that color on my WS6 LT1 or something similar.

^^^ws6 in my opinion are pushing tacky the way they come from the factory. I don’t need some bright *** color to get attention. I feel it would make my car look ricey

I think it has a lot to do with gray not being offered from the factory... I vote for cyber metallic, DSG has too much of a tan look to me *shrug* (if you've ever seen it in person)
