Default car being painted in a couple weeks, made my choice to go with copper but what kind?

hey guys as some you might already know my car is in the bodyshop getting prep for paint and waiting for the aerokit to come in now my color choices since 1 month ago has change drastically from my first choice was to go with the ISF "ULTRASONIC BLUE", some beamer blue and a lambo blue metallic well that was atleast till i found out there was already a gs and sc in houston already rolling the isf blue color and plus i wasnt able to get a hold of the vertix kit to match with the color so then i decided to go with the newer FORD color the "GOLDEN BRONZE" but when it really came down to it i kinda seem alittle more orange to me, then i saw the 2012 model VW JETTA "TOFFEE BROWN" but then that seem alittle too dark, so now im stop and debating on a BMW color "SEPANG BRONZE" but then again im not sure it might seem a little more silver then bronze to me soooo..... i need your guys to help me show me some pics of BRWON/COPPER METALLIC COLORS and the color code oh and here is one i am really digging but i dont know the color code




-FORDS (GOLDEN BRONZE) color code v7
-in the dark

-in the light


-VW JETTA (TOFFEE BROWN)
-in the dark

-in the light


-BMW (SEPANG BRONZE) color code a32
-in the dark

-in the light (seems alittle more silverish brown)


so now i leave it for you guys to help me out thanks guys

the only reason why i am deciding not to go with any lexus oem color is because i want to keep it outside out of the lexus colors itself and be unique if that even makes sense lol...

OF all those vehicles, I liked the Ford Copper the best. It stood out the best in the 'light' pictures.

...not really into the copper color thing especially if youre doing a jp bodykit. just my opinion. hey, you should do a build thread and post all your questions and stuff instead of making separate threads.
