Silky Silver Discussion

[Kia Stinger]

Hmmmm......It's the tint that came on the car.

Now that you've mentioned this - I'm looking at the driver's side window and seeing how light it is - it could actually be factory tint. It just looks really dark on that passenger side. I guess it's shadow...

Awesome pics☺

Thanks Paisley, yours looks good too, but I am biased toward Silky Silver

Drivers side window was down☺

Dang. All the colors look good on the stinger. Wish I could afford one in each color they offer!

I almost totally agree, one in each colour except black, nothing against it just not my choice.

Thank you for the pictures, @Stinger GT SS! It looks awesome! Really great in that silver. Yes, as @Chris mentioned we have a legal obligation to use orange. Personally, I think the white looks much better...

Would it be that orange would show up better in snow at night than a white reflector?

I don't think snow has anything to do with it. I think it is all BS but the thinking I guess is if your lights are out it is easier to see the orange side reflectors and know that's the front of the car and the red side reflectors are the back. The clear reflectors with the orange bulbs only show orange with power and the light on. Dumb right?

 

[Kia Stinger]

I don't know. There must be a good reason if they're so bent on the orange reflectors. I just don't think orange goes with many cars - which is why I prefer the clear look. I think white definitely looks better than orange on silky silver.

Just found this thread....late to the party. Here's ours..

I didn't even know there were a color specific set of threads. Oh, well.

Here's mine in several venues separated by weeks/months. What the pics lack in artistic, atmospheric appeal, I make up for in number!

Yes!!! One of the things I really like about Silky Silver is that it can look very different at all different times in the day but there is no mistaking it's silver. I was hung up on white for a long time (secretly still am lol) but each time I walk out to my car or see it in the garage I think "right choice!". I'll be doing a couple exterior mods to make a more aggressive look but it's an elegant color either way.

 

[MerlintheMad]

Never thought "aggressive" when looking at silver. But okay to that! What I did notice right away is that in certain bright sunlit conditions, from a middling distance it looks almost white, which is rather cool.
