Default Different Silver?
Sebring Silver, Quick Silver, Machine Silver, are they the same? Different? I wanna try those Altec splash guards (gravel road neighborhood) and I see Sebring and Quick but not Machine. Help.

Regards,
Vinnie

All 3 are different. Machine Silver will be very dark compared to the other 2.

They are all different shades of silver. The other two will be noticable on the Machine Silver color.
