I would personally go with silver... Silver to me, due to the metal flakes in it, makes it more dimensional.... white to me just flattens the dimensions of the color... if that makes sense.

Sorry to steal your thread, but would you mind telling what brand of paint you are going to be using, I want a paint that is close to anodized blue if anybody has a clue what I could use. Hey benzbuildr do you work at the mercedes plant off of hwy 11?

| For an anodized look go with Spaz Stix Hard Anodized blue and back it with their chrome followed by black...
