Medium Spiral Gray Metallic
I just got my car back from my paint guy last Sunday. My wife and I chose a 2004 Corvette color called Medium Spiral Gray Metallic. This color should have come on 3rd gen cars from the factory. I am in the process of doing dynamat and installing the new interior. I will post pics in the next few days. I used 2 trunk kits (40 sq ft) of extreme dynamat and I need probably 1 and a half more. This sucker is gonna look awesome. Also, I bought the goodmark steel cowl hood. Fits like a glove. :rockon:

I had my car painted the medium spiral gray metallic in December '02. The following pictures are kind of dark and don't do the car justice. I get lots of compliments on this color.

Thx Cappy. I don't know the color code off the top of my head, but can get it if needed. I went to a gtg where a guy had fresh paint job of Gun Metal Grey and his car looked damn sweet. I've noticed that in some pictures, my car takes on more of a green hue. But it's definitely a darker grey than the original.

All Jean-Luc needs is the code. Then after Enterprise is fitted with its new hi-amp alt., it can replicate the color all by itself, lol.
