Hi all, and calling all 996 wheel geeks for this one , The MY2005 brochure for 911 Turbo & Turbo S refers to the Turbo II (Twist) wheels painted in GT Silver specifically on the Turbo S only . Widely known to be a darker shade than found on the non-S Turbo. Question: How much darker is it...? Request: Does anyone have side by side photos of a non-S Turbo Twist VS Turbo S Twist, showing the difference in colour? Icing on the cake would be pics in direct sunlight, and in the shade. Hope someone can assist - thank you.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Yes - also found this pic which unfortunately suffers from poor lighting: The difference between the two shouldn't be as significant, hence was seeking a comparison pic in fair lighting (both in direct light, both in shade).
maybe the question, is what are you planning to do ?

the answer is, simply, planning to see the variance in hue between the two shades, and in fair/equal lighting
