I just ordered a set of Auto X's in hyper silver. So when they come in this week I can send some pics. But from the pics I've seen, Hyper Silver is shinier than normal silver, but not quite as shiny as polish. Hyper Black is a strange color. Some times it looks gloss black, some times it looks like chrome almost...

I don't know anything about these specific wheels, but gunmetal is typically a somewhat dark gray color (not as dark as charcoal gray, but not as light as a regular standard gray). It's usually a solid color, NOT a metallic finish (i.e. NOT with little metallic flakes in the paint).

Here are pictures of the gunmetal-colored wheels that were stock on the 2000-2001 Integra Type R:
