This is Peugeot graphite grey, it complements the colour of the rub strips and the rear spoiler. Plus its a Peugeot colour, not Ford!

nothing wrong with ford! halfords didnt have any pug graphte so i went for the closest.
ive had 5 mondeos so dont mind using ford stuff.

all depends on the application as to how shiney you get them,
