Well, it depends what kinda look your looking for.
The silver is more of a stock look.
The gun metal is one step higher the stock.
Then black is the want a be racer look.
Personally, the gunmetal is the cleaner look without trying to hard to look fixed up like in the Fast in the Furious.
Sorry, I work in the automotive business. So, I hear these types of questions a lot.
I hope this helps.

ted テッド> I'm also in the automotive industry, well not yet but soon, I'm graduating next year with a degree in Vehicle R and D. But ya paint and color match is not my thing, Fabrication and engine design is my thing haha. But ya i'm buying the paint today for it. going to start this weekend.
だいはど> We are currently working on a V-12 but it puts about 500+hp stock. We took and old block from a british car, dunno what it was, but redesigned the engine by making a new block based on its specs. Also we built a car to run of methane which basically comes out of everyone, but based on cow shit. haha

Fabrication and engine design is cool. I wish I got into that stuff earlier especially school, but me and my friends did it the old school way by taking engines apart is each others garage and then learning from magazines and books. Then worked our ways into working at shops here and there, seeing all the different things and customers would do to there cars and fabricating our own parts for our cars. It was a lot of fun.
Anyway good luck with your studies and with you car, it sounds like fun.
くりっC:
Yea, I said "The Fast in the Furious"! Lame, right!
Actually, at one of the places I worked for, my friend built the Yellow Supra in the First movie and Silver Skyline in the second one and I helped with the building of the Paul Walker's personal white skyline. Crazy!!? hahaaa

And on that note, did your order your parts over night from japan? I'm sorry I had to. Anyway, still ted テッド I still want to be proficent in body work and such. I already can design molds and use different plastics including fibers such as kevlar, fiber glass and carbon fiber. But still thats how I started too. Magazines and books. Now i'm hands on using different theories that either blow up in my face or move on to succuess with rights to the part. Right now I'm also in the development of a kind of hybrid turbo that uses the exhaust and engine crank, but still its a hypothesis..... haha... ok done

As to the parts question, where I worked at that time, I use to be a US distributor for a certain company in Japan, so I could order any part I needed or find someone I could get it from. Today, parts are pretty easy to find. A lot of companies from Japan have come over to setup a US branch or have distributors here in the US now. Why is there something you looking for???
If there is, maybe I might now someone who can get it?
Yea, we did all that stuff in our garages back in the day too. Dont get me wrong, I dont want to sound like I'm high on myself and my friends, but this is how we learn to do things when this import industry was just starting out.
In 1994, my friends and I turbo charged my 1991 Acura Integra LS (1.8 Non-Vtec) motor by ourselves. Since then, we've gone on to build engines for import drag cars that run high or low compression turbo setups, work at a number of import shops in Southern California since the early 1990s and magazines. Today, one of my friends works in the drift circuit here the US maintaining a number of the drift cars from Japan, another is a import driver in the drag circuit and so forth. Its pretty crazy looking back at it now what we've all done.
