Whats a good substitute for this color (mica silver), the sc430 asks for it, but i can't get my hands on it. The two colors im debating on using is silverleaf or aluminum. There is no silver decals, only red so i imagine either should be fine?

Mica silver has very fine metallic flakes in it. Do you need a spray can? I'm 80% positive I can get you some from the LHS. PM a dude.

Tamiya TS Gloss Aluminum should work if there are no silver decals, it's got slightly smaller metallic particles and a slightly warmer appearance (Mica Silver has a slight tint of blue by comparison).

TS17 works pretty good instead of the mica silver a little little bit darker but nothing bad really..... Look:
