Visualizer

The visualizer is inaccurate. The lower pic is more real. If you want to see this color, go to a Chevy dealer and look for a truck, Camaro or possibly a C7. These models also use this color. Depending on your eye, you’ll see either blue or green in the metallic.

Default Shadow Gray Stealth

Just got done with full xpel stealth wrap. Lighting was getting a little dim for these pictures.

Wow, I have never liked the dark grays (e.g., Cyber Gray). I thought they looked dingy in any light other than the strongest sunlight, but damn, this is a beautiful color!

Holy smoking hot satin finish Batman!

I really like this, my local guy was trying to talk me into the look once I have my car, but I wasn't sure. This looks awesome.

Yes, like the Sky Cool Gray. No wear issues after 3 months. Not a daily driver.

THIS is the color combo I have picked, Triple Gray.. SGM, SKG, Q8T (gray trident wheels)
The question is ....
Do you get reflections of the dash in the windscreen as has been reported with the natural interior? .. Or should I get the all black?

Yes, reflections on the sides but does not impair drivers visibility.

I saw a C8 coupe this color in the wild earlier this afternoon. Down right EXOTIC. I have a black over red mist HTC on order right now, but seeing that Shadow Gray today, sort of makes me wonder....
