Mercury Silver is straight up silver.

Titanium Silver has a matte type finish, and tends to look whiter.

Formula Silver is silver with a black undercoat. In bright light it has the reflective quality of silver, but tends to be darker. In low light it almost looks like a black chrome. Its an amazing color. If VABAM could paint his door handles Formula Silver to match his wheels .

These were my Formula Silver CE28n's for my NSX. You can even see the black on the inner end of the barrel:

10mm spacers in the rear, Tein Type Flex Coilovers and a StopTech BBK coming soon.
I'll post pics after they are installed.
Love the formula silver but now the silver on the car door handles stick out too much.
Going to have to paint them but that will be later.


So...

They were installed Wednesday.
On Saturday and Sunday....

Might be awhile though.
Got to find some one who can color match it which will not be easy.
Once it is done I'll definitely post pics.
