Looking at both variants side-by-side, I think your grey

Neither am I. I have no idea how to pull off a "silver-metallic
look".
I can't seem to find a good border color for a lighter menu
background, because the lightness of the border comes close to
that of
the page background, and they blend.
What about making both brighter?
I'm already in over my head here. So, maybe, I guess? But if it's
an improvement over the status quo, I'd like to try without
touching all the colors. They can always be fine-tuned later on.
Preferably by someone who knows their color ABC a little better
than me.
