Plasti Dip's Anthracite Grey Metallic is as close to Sterling Grey as you'll get.

Does anyone have pics of something with the plastidip anthracite grey metallic on a sterling gray metallic? I would like to do my front and rear bumpers and maybe my grill and step bars. About how many cans would I need to do 4-5 coats for the bumpers?

I've done 4 rims with 3 cans so my guess is that you'd need 3 cans. It might be cheaper to get the "kit" with 4 cans from dipyourcar.com though. I used that same color on my Acura.

What color is that?

Looks closer to dark shadow grey like the colors they used to run on the two tone 04-08 FX4's. I'm trying to find a color that will match my 2012 FX4 (Sterling Grey)

Its Plasti Dips Dark Gray. It was the closest I could find to match the OEM fender flares found on the FX4 model trucks. Wish is was a better match.

Here's a thread I started about Plasti Dip being applied to them: https://www.f150forum.com/f38/ptm-bu...riment-318592/
