I'm sure they will have a similar color. This is very close to Comp Gray. It's more of a flat or satin on my wheels.
I used the rattle can in case I wanted to change it later. 7 months passed and they still look great. Car is driven in the winter also.
I believe I used the "Duplicolor OEM" paint.

Well guys its down to the Cup wheels in gloss black or the Spyder wheels in black. Any pics of a c6 coupe on gloss black cup wheels on stock ride height would greatly appreciated. I saw one on spyder wheels alread. As for you guys that painted your break calipers, did you rattle can at home or have them done at a paint shop or PC shop?
Here are some photos of the cup, spyder and our original idea to PC the stock wheels. Btw the pic of the white c6 with the PC'ed stock wheels and red calipers is amazing!
Not on a C6 coupe, but a GS, but you get the idea.

Dark Shadow Gray. Painted.
Black is played out and adds no depth of color. IMO.
