2020 C3 of the Year Finalist - Modified
My c3 was painted back in 2010/11. Yes it's factory c5 color and the factory does have a lot of metallic in it. My brother had a c5 in msg and looks just like it. Great color and seems to change from a dark grey to a light grey almost silver depending on lighting.

Oh, and how do you like the under hood gauges? Can you actually see them clearly in most/ all driving conditions? I have an aftermarket hood and thought about putting gauges there if I do the double din install.

Wow, quite a project. Very impressive!. I too am thinking about adding a/c but will probably be going with Vintage air. I was worried that a double din setup would not leave enough room for the Vintage air a/c ducts. Is your double din standard depth or shallow? Any issues routing the ducts behind the Android unit?

You can see the gauges in the rain pretty well. They're out of most weather, but that's one reason why i put the lesser important there. Overall they're really not much further away than the other gauges.
Video isn't the best but this may help.
