seal was a sweet color PORSCHENA.
It's still available paint to sample though.

There is a shortage of Seal meat, so they have to make the change for environmental reasons. However, there was a large meteorite that crashed near Stuttgart, so they are using that for the new color.



Really though, they are VERY close in color. While the Seal Grey Metallic contains some lavender undertones, the Meteor is more toward the gunmetal tone overall, with less of the purple you see in Seal. Nearly impossible to see in digital shots, but in person you can see it clearly.
