Default looking for pictures of silver variations
I'm having my car repainted this summer. Its currently sebring silver. I'm thinking of something maybe a bit darker/different. I would like to see the different variations of silver people have. I was thinking use the same silver as now but add a black pearl coat.

Diamond metallic and puts Sebring Silver to shame. Had a side by side comparison but can't find it at the moment.

Wow that color looks nice. It'd be awesome if you can find that side by side.

I think i might go with something like that and the gray pearl similar to tiger.

If you don't have ALL the cars together in the same light, you won't get the desired visible difference in them. . . lighting makes a huge difference on this

I think you should find a benz or bmw silver, these photos probably have some photochop work to make the silver look like this...but it looks sick.
