Mature male molted again

[Not Savsonite]

Back story, family member found in the bed of their truck after doing a couple wood hauls, not sure where it came from they offered it to me.

Once I got him I noticed he was a mature male ___________ ______, not expecting long I gave him him his little hiding spot in an halfway enclosure. That was December '21, he molted again a couple weeks ago, lost his Pedipalps and completely changed appearance.

Anyone care to take a guess at the species? He WAS mature before this molt, definitely wasn't black.
Aphonopelma found in California.

I have pictures of him MM version 1, I just want everyone as confused as I am before I ruin his secret.

Grammostola pulchra Brazilian black?

Nearest I can tell he's Aphonopelma iodius.
Here are a couple pictures before his post ultimate molt.

Aphonopelma eutylenum maybe? I believe they have a range of colourations possible. Not saying you're wrong, just wondering myself.

I've been going back and forth between the two species, all I know for sure is it's Aphonopelma mature male haha.

At a quick glance (and if I didn’t know he was mature) I would have said he looks a lot like my juvenile Aphonopelma Hentzi.
