Pure Metal Carbon Grey vs Pure Metal Dark Grey: the differences.

The first difference between Pure Metal Carbon Grey and Pure Metal Dark Grey is depth: Pure Metal Dark Grey reads darker, so it hides body lines that Pure Metal Carbon Grey shows. The second is not the finish: both are metallic films, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
