I would check out the House of Kolor paints. They love mixing stuff and spraying different colors on top of one another to create unique colors.ei

They have a virtual paint gallery where you can see some examples of their stuff

check out color 2320

Note that silver metallic can be a little fussy about application. (DAMHIK)

Agreed, I can't wait to repaint my GS, the original sunrise red is starting to orange peel.
