Default go check the sticker that nikhil mentions ...

brilliant black = LY9B; raven black = LZ9V

Raven has a "Brown Metallic" look to it! BB is clear reflection!

Default raven looks like espresso brown/grey

it is really nice in person. JPAmerica has it and i saw it at a GTG last year. very nice color, and easier to take care of in the sense that scratches and swirls are less noticeable with the metallic paint.
