powdercoat samples!!! PICS!!!

so it came down to these two colors. i didnt wanna do gloss black, i wanna be different. plus it will show to many inprefections.
in these pics the flake is way to bright. in person its much more subtle.
in the shade these colors look exactly the same... a gunmetal gray.
when the sun hits it the right way you see the gold in it (bike peg)
the peg is the same color as the can, but with 1% gold flake in the clear.

i think im going with the color on the bike peg lol.
let me know what you guys think!!!
