Question Request for a color

Hey all,
I just placed an order for the 05 E55 and its getting ready to be built. I am how ever getting nervous about the color. I picked is Pewter metallic. I havent seen a 55 in this color so I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this.
Also I read that you can replace the snorkle on the drivers or passengers side for a larger one to let more air in. Does this really work?

Thanks
PB

The pewter matallic looks really nice. I think you made a good choice.

I find Pewter silver with slightly too much tint of gold for my taste. I think you should look at an actual real sample before deciding.
