Gunmetal or anthracite grey!! IMHO I think this colour suits virtually car colour, gives it more purposeful look and does a good job at hiding the brake dust if you don't get a chance to wash it. ;-)

Have a look at my build thread, page two or three and see the colour I got mine painted. :thumbsup:
