Default SOM vs CRM
Do these look the same to anyone else?

Yes they do look the same but what is the point of this post? Are you repainting your car?

Not really but I found an SS hood for my car in SOM. It is really hard finding body parts for a CRM since it was only a 98 color. I was curious how it would work on my car, and how different these colors were.

When you look the colors by themselves they look the same but park a crm next to a som and they are day and night.

^^^What nine said. I had a 98 cayenne formula before my SOM T/A. Ones more red, the others mor Orange. hence the name of the colors. Both beautiful colors though

crappy pictures.. but you can tell there is a fairly significant difference between the two colors.. first picture with normal light and the other with a sungun light on it...

yeah in a picture they may seem like similar colors, but see them in person or in direct sunlight and you will see a major difference.
