ANH Vader colors

[useful idiot]

OK, so I decided I am going to take my ANH Vader helmet to a body shop to get painted. What color code for automotive paint should I have them use? I know gunmetal is used from the spray cans, but what do people use for automotive paint from a spray gun? Thanks for any info.

Different vehicles used different shades of gunmetal paint..

Find the one you like best, and ask your auto paint shop to get that for you..

Thanks.

My advise would be not to choose a too silvery gunmetal grey color as the grey was added for highlight effects and supposed to read as "black" to the viewer.

Sounds good. I might try having them match the DupliColor gunmetal.
