Randy_Baton Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Just found out I'm actually a Blade Silver, how embarrassing. I always thought they were the same colour. There is a true gun metal close to me, I've always wondered what he puts on his car to get it looking so dark and wet. I swear someone on here told me gun metal and blade were the same! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie94gts Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Lol. Just looked at your build page and the first photo is so obviously not a GM (am confident I'm a GM but might just double check the paint code tomorrow... ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flex Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I think it's just silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Unlucky, way to lose 25bhp At least it's not ginger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14N Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Quickest and easiest way I've found of telling is look at the door handles. If they're the same (or virtually the same) colour as the car, then the car's blade silver. If the car's noticeably darker than the door handles, then it's the best and fastest colour, Gunmetal. (Yes, I know you've painted your door handles black)! Unfortunately the V5 logbook doesn't help much, as it lists the Gunmetal colour as silver! Paint code will tell you for sure. If it's WV2, it's Gunmetal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Might be Blade Metal or Gun Silver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 There is a true gun metal close to me At least you've solved the mystery of who vandalised your car; "Oh look, it's that c**t who's going round town telling everyone that, that ridiculous colour is the same as mine...".

StevoD Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 why so much hate on blade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brillomaster Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 they are pretty close... I personally wish the gunmetal was a darker shade of grey, as it is its a bit of a 'meh' colour. I actually really like the later 350zs in blade silver - when its clean the paint really shines, looks gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
