HELP: Grey or white primer for silent silver?

Just doing a small local tidy up and respray. I'm not sure if I should use grey primer or white primer underneath the silent silver topcoat. Does anyone happen to know? The Bongo shop seems to sell one primer (doesn't seem to say if its grey) for all topcoats except Chaste White (which uses white primer). I guess the implication is that its grey primer?

could you try it out on a sample first? Reckon Grey would give it more body?

Hi
That worries me a lot....I now realise I should have sprayed my tyres to match, when I did the bumper....do you think anyone will notice that I didn't?????....
Cheers
