Yeah go with the steel grey. I have gun metal C8's and they look almost black, just a little lighter.

i also had a set of gunetal c8s and they look more like a brownish/black than a dark grey. the steel grey would look perfect... that's just my .02

Steel Gray Slipstreams in direct sunlight


They look alittle darker in the shade but still a nice gunmetal color.
