Default Looking for a mean looking silver paint job...

Guys if you have any pics of Camaro's with a silver paint job, plz post em for me. Im looking for a mean silver if you can assume what I'm talking about. I prefer LT-1 camaro pics but lt1 camaro/trans ams or ls1 camaro/trans am pics will be nice too.

i feel confused. silver is silver. are you referring to a shade variation that has a meaner/more aggressive look to it than regular silver?? as in a darker shade i assume? or are you referring to doing something like stripes, perhaps ghost stripes?

or are you talking about silver cars, that, due to the modifications done to them appearance wise, have a mean/aggressive look?

just trying to figure out what you're going for. i haven't seen Death Race, maybe if you post up a pic of the car that might help...

Sorry. I mean like aggressive. A nice aggressive shade of silver, no stripes or anything. Darker.

I've seen that before. That color is SICK. Viper steel gray i think. I went crazy when i saw it. Im really looking for more of a silver. Dark silver is probably the best way to describe it. I'll do some more googling. I really wanna see it on a camaro though.

That color will definitely be an option though. Thanks for posting that.

I don't even like LT1 style F-bodies, but that is awesome. Factory colors like that generally have a name like "Flint Mica". What is it?

The color is House of Kolor black pearl. It looks more gray. At night under the street lights the car is amazing.

A color change can do wonders. The factory makes so many good looking cars with the absolute wrong colors.

Here is the full build of the car
