was checking out this car at the Patrick site they are doing for a guy down your way - color is Hot Hues "Silva". Looks pretty nice on the monitor.

Just don't forget to remind yourself the color looks like it does ON YOUR SCREEN WITH YOUR SCREEN SETTINGS - real color could be quite different in terms of darker/brighter, etc based on your monitor settings. I assume you are just looking for the jist of what the color will generally look like on the car.

When it comes down to picking the actual silver, or the actual whatever you decide on, just have to get with your painter buddy, go thru color charts, pick and then double check when he mixes it up and pops the lid for the first time.

I have dual monitors here at work, funny to see the difference between digital and regular inputs (box has only one digital output). Same exact monitor model for both, and I have a pic of my own car as the background (egotistical in some way I am sure) and the white on the fiberglass fenders looks bright on the digital one, not so glossy on the other.
