Hello,

I am looking to repaint my puma, and would go for a thunder color, that lovely dark silver. Or gray or something.

Some says it's called Gunmetal grey, some says machine grey, and some says cuirass grey.

Please let me know the shade of these two:

i understood that cuirass grey is this:

so?
 
Thunders only came in Moondust Silver or Magnum Grey.
See other colours here:

Second picture is Magnum grey, as you say the first is Cuirass. No 'Gunmetal' or 'Machine' grey colours on a Puma.
 
Magnum Grey is a great looking colour when its nicely polished and fresh, especially with Moondust Silver alloys. Had a Mondeo Graphite in it and a Focus ST170 in that colour, much better than the latter Sea Grey.
 
Ditto! Had a Mk1 Focus in magnum grey with 16" alloys (I believe it was zetec model in UK) and still regret sellng it to an idiot who hasn't washed the car for over two years and basically destroyed it by negligence
 
so the color code of Ford is 2MWE... i think i should be fine... :)

problem with cuirass is that sometimes it is called also Medium Steel Blue... so i don't want blue...

It's like Bishops of the church, their diocise is tattooed on the back of their neck...or, in this case...by a colour code on the VIN plate...or here ...http://www.paints4u.com/AutoColours.aspx?ProductID=5260
