Toss up paint choice

It's been a long two weeks getting this body work done. The whole deal was a great deal since my brother in law was the manager. Well that all changed when he quit a week ago Friday. Work came to a complete halt. At least he didn't burn the bridge and turns out he ripped his house apart while out of work. Plays right into my wheelhouse cause that's what I do. Little barter action and we're back on track. Body work was finished on Saturday going for wet sanding tomorrow and off to paint Wednesday (will see) he also told me he would cover my car if pushed out into the yard. That never happened and it got rained on a couple times. I'm not going back I'm looking ahead. My two choices Canyon Copper Pearl and a new Acura 2015 paint called Black Copper Pearl I like the Canyon because I like the black striping. The Black Copper I would go white pearl striping but I think it would also look badd ***. Will show two pics let me know if you guys like them first and which one better. Thx always appreciate opinions here. I don't shop anywhere else, for opinions anyway. Sorry 72 Cutlass s for those who don't know. Might be selling the white one not sure yet.

2 zip for Canyon I'm leaning that way as well but the more I see that black copper the more I like it. I don't really see the purple but deep dark purple wouldn't bother me. Now Barney purple yea I get it. Keep them coming it's much appreciated. Thx

The Black Copper looks like plain old Brown.
