Silver, but which silver?

[T2FFN]

I'm having the ellipsoids fully refurbed at the weekend. Acid, blasted, powder coated then sprayed back to silver, but i don't have a silver name.

I want them to remain bright silver, as I like the contrast to the black paintwork, but what silver to go for?

Hyper silver?

What colour are CSLs? Very 'metallic silver'...

Hyper silver wont have the OEM look, but would look tasty I reckon

Thought hyper black was the the dark silver? Not sure if the guy has a swatch book, but he said he'd done them in the standard bright silver. That's ok I guess, just want to make sure they look good, and oem quality.

That'll be on thin spokes though, less metal to reflect light. On 107s you've got lots of flat metal to reflect the light

What would be the OEM ellipsoid silver then?

Where are you getting them done mate?

Jonny essex, Sorry but I think you are wrong saying that hyper silver can look very dark!? I think it's quite the opposite, very bright and shiny..Much better than a normal silver IMO.

Here's my hyper silver CSL's
