I've mentioned Lexus Atomic Silver a few times. One just happened to park outside the neighbors house yesterday and thankfully it was clean. Gave me a chance to sit and look at it for a few. Snapped a picture with the current spray outs to get a better idea. I'm diggin it, but not sure it's right. https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-...-jq3qBCM-L.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-...-ftKr5Lp-L.jpg |
I went through this gray silver thing a few years ago when my dad painted his Sport Fury, I've witnessed your pain! He ended up with a Saab color that looks just right, color darkens around body lines and pops in the sun.
Out of the two you're showing in the picture, I'd be leaning towards the lighter color. :thumbsup: :headspin: |
I loved this color I painted my previous 68. Never see it on many cars, now or then. I liked it because it had very minimal metallic which most other colors seem to have a fair amount to a large amount.

Called my pops, he said it was Saab 279. Looks good with chrome, black trim and his gray centered torque thrusts.
Put your top colors on the wall and throw a dart..... |

That lexus color is sharp. I would consider it a transitional to contemporary color for a muscle car. Wait a minute, we aren't talking about houses.
In all seriousness, I'm going through the design of my custom house right now. In the last stages. The overall vision is important in your color choice. A modern color will work great with a modern theme. Meaning, engine, wheels, interior, luxuries I'm building a transitional house. Meaning, not to traditional, not to contemporary. A modern balance. I don't know if this helps, but I thought I'd share this perspective because building a custom car, which I've done, and a custom house are in the same ball park. I pieced my muscle car together and it turned out good, I've spent some serious time on design and preparation for my home, I hope it turns out great. |

Just my .02 but with what looks like brushed centers on the wheels I would go with a middle to darker shade of grey. The Sterling Gray BMW color would look great with those wheels. I am having a hard time with color right now as well. I have a 68 and my forgelines have black centers. I was looking at the Atomic Silver but wondered if the color was too "New" for the older muscle car? I also looked at the Porsche 918 Liquid Metal Silver. GOOD LUCK!!!
