Really liking the ford graphite grey. Do you as the customer normally have to supply the paint if you want a certain colour? If so from where and how much? Cheers________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!'' Why drive a Golf....when you can drive a GTi-6? |

In the strictest sense anthracite is a gloss black.The name comes from anthracite coal, which is a black coal of glossy appearance. It gets misused as a colour description though, and can mean anything from a medium grey to black, and dark greys with subtle tints are sometimes called anthracite too. ________________________________________ Rich |

to summarise, black/anthracite/grey/gun metal gray/satin black/gloss black/medium black/coal black and ford graphite grey mean not a lot. it is purely interpretation by the person doing them ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |
