97 Beige vs 99 Beige

Is there a difference between '97 beige and '99 beige on the maxima?

I have my eye on a '99 trunk lid to replace my '97 lid. My car is beige and the '99 seems more gold. I'm not sure whether it was the light, my eyes, or maybe my paint is mopre faded. Unfoprtunately, I can't put them next to each other to compare.

Any info is appreciated.

EVO is the paint code for the sunlit sand 99. It looks better than the darker beige. That's my personal opinion by the way.

It's EV0, not EVO. And yes, it matters lol.

Wheelie King, take a look at my website. My FAQ page has a color chart. You can take a look at the pictures for EV0 and CG2, you'll see the difference
