Color Difference Between PSM, and CGM?

Smallville · 11-20-2009, 12:53 AM

how much of a color difference is there?
if i were to get a CGM hood scoop to replace my PSM scoop delete, would it look THAT out of place? or is the difference in the scoop color so very little you won't notice it?

any and all help here would be awesome!

^^this i have a PSM and my roommate has a CGM and they are at least 5 shades apart even from a distance PSM is really bright and CGM is medium dark...

yeah i just imagine on the hood scoop it won't be THAT much more noticable.. but i could be wrong, if someone has a side by side comparison pictures or something that'd be awesome!

if you can please post a side by side, that would be awesome,.... it's just one of those, i need to see it to believe it.

CGM is more of a sandy color. For your KSTECH scoop it would be barely noticeable. But with the Sti hoodscoop you could tell a good 5 ft away.

well i have someone who wants to trade straight up, for a cgm sti scoop.. it's apparent the scoop delete isn't gonna sell... and im not shelling out 200 for an STi scoop.. thats just redic for me at this point, when i can just trade for what i have.

Smallville · 11-20-2009, 01:40 AM

^^^ That is SGM (steel gray metallic). I just traded mine in.

CGM is more "silvery" than that, but still quite different from PSM. You would definitely notice it.

Smallville · 11-20-2009, 03:19 PM

^^ yeah i'll just ahve it painted i guess.. can't complain for a straight up trade i guess.

Heres a few pics of my old 04 PSM wrx that I put a CGM roof vane on. If you look close you can tell its a little different, but not nearly as different as some of the people who posted said, who clearly have no idea what they are talking about. Hope this helps.

WRX357 · 11-23-2009, 08:10 PM

Cool thanks smallville
