Matte Pearl Metal Black vs Matte Pearl Metal Grey

Wrap comparison · updated Aug 2026

Matte Pearl Metal Black (#17181A) reads darker than Matte Pearl Metal Grey (#343436), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Matte Pearl Metal Grey lifts them. Both films carry a metallic finish, so the choice is purely the colour. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both colours further than a swatch chip suggests. Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.

Matte Pearl Metal Black vs Matte Pearl Metal Grey: the differences.

The first difference between Matte Pearl Metal Black and Matte Pearl Metal Grey is depth: Matte Pearl Metal Black reads darker, so it hides body lines that Matte Pearl Metal Grey shows. The second is not the finish: both are metallic films, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
