Quick Poll on RS6 Alloy Colour

[MikeyTomo]

Unsure on these two colours, bare in mind that I have fly eyes so lights and indicators are black and possibly getting the roof black too. Not my photo, just a quick photoshop of a car I found on here which is similar to mine.

Gun Metal Grey/Anthracite

Silver

Defo anthracite mate

Couldnt of asked for better pics

Mine is silver with black RS6's atm but planning on going gunmetal & colour code rub strips & bottom of bumpers

Think silver on a silver car is too much,gunmetal looks spot on imo

 

[MikeyTomo]

Only thing is, I am unaware of what colour to actually look for would it be a metallic anthracite or a metallic gunmetal grey?

Welcome! Just a quick 15 minute job. I've been following your readers ride quite a lot recently and I am impressed. Guess our cars could be turning out pretty similar

Would you say that it is pretty similar to the colour of the photoshop?

Good thing to stay pre facelift, keeps the cars character with less of the 'mutton dressed as lamb' so to speak.

Bit darker i would say

I think shadow chrome effect is a brilliant colour for wheels. Pretty sure it would look awesome on a set of rs6 rims.

Seen some on a Leon and they were a a dark bronze colour they looked great, but keep it quiet as that's what I'm doing
The rover colour is called x power grey btw.

Funny enough my bro said bronze would look good

I would love to do mine candy purple

Wheels are now in the body shop getting sprayed. Decided to settle on a Mercedes Graphite as it has the darkness but a nice metallic colour in the light.

Do you have a paint code
