What year?

The shades of grey for the 987 in 2005 and 2006 are;

1) Seal Grey
2) GT Silver Metallic
3) Slate Grey Metallic
4) Atlas Grey Metallic (almost black, lots of metal flake)
5) Artic Silver

For 2007, Seal Grey was dropped and replaced by Meteor Grey Metallic.

If the top matches his car, have him read the paint code off the inside front trunk lid. once you have the code, you know the color and can decide if its the right color for you or if you may need to paint to match.
