Hazy Gray vs Dark Silver Dash

Which one is darker for F56: Hazy Gray vs Dark Silver Dash. Does anyone have pictures of each one. The Dealer did not have samples and could not answer the question?

I found these threads useful when trying to compare the two colors:

Just got back from dealer and can confirm hazy grey is darker and different feel to dark silver. Hazy grey has little glossy strip things (exactly like off-white dash) but is generally matte. Dark Silver is lighter (like regular silver really ha) but couldn't tell if glossy or slightly matte as that car was locked. Looks solid though like piano black - no patterns. There was confusion due to the configurator incorrectly switching them and also showing piano black door bezels with hazy grey, when in fact there is no door bezel plastic - the only option on both models with no door bezel plastic. I believe if you choose dark silver, both the dash and door bezels are dark silver. All other options appear to be piano black other than off-white. I can also confirm piano black is a major fingerprint/smudge magnet. If I get an F56, getting dark silver or off-white based on what I've seen so far.

What do think of:
Leather/Cloth Diamond Black Seat
Anthracite Headliner
Hazy Gray Dash
Shadow Gray Color Line

If you don't mind not having the door bezel plastic (due to hazy grey dash), sounds like a good combo. You might want to just get the JCW Package since you are getting the headliner. It's $600 for a bunch of other stuff and just $350 more.
