I think black would just look black at night or day, there isn't a light black or a darker black. (It'd just be shades of grey.. wouldn't it be?)

The metallic gunmetal will give a nice grey shine in the light or get pretty close to black in the dark, hence I meant here the more contrast.

The black looks nice on a lot of cars, dont get me wrong, but on a silver car i think the gunmetal will look a lot better IMO.

See how theres a spot of white light reflecting off the gunmetal? that doesn't really happen for the black. (you'd know better since I'm assuming you took the pics.)
