Paint Color Ideas (PICS)

Alrighty, there's a possibility of me getting my car redone, so I might have to make a few choices regarding colors. Here they are:

SSM:



or Graphite:



Both of these pics were from member's cars. Personally, I'm really leaning towards the SSM, just because I love the way they shine in the sun and the easy upkeep. It would be something that looked factory, but is unique because it was never offered on the car. Also, anywhere to get a front lip at a reasonable price?

If it comes down to those two colors, SSM looks better.

Definitely SSM... then again my opinion is biased... damn.. that door setup looks hot on that car... umm wonder if i should get into something like that =)..

If you want uniqueness go with graphite.. actualy it's called anthractie ... looks good under sunlight... my paretns have that in their TL and they seem to love it.. it's not dark enough to notice any scratches or dirt like u would with black car

graphite would look better or more unique but i think the ssm would be easier to take care of and still be clean.. id choose that one just bc im having to handle taking care of black right now

Anthracite of the two, but do something original (doesn't have to be loud).
