I just got an HD hood for my cateye, but I’m having a tough time figuring out what color my truck actually is. According to the color code in the glove box, it says fine silver birch metallic. But I found out the VIN is scratched off the sticker in the glove box, so I can’t check if the VINs match. On top of that, one of my coworkers has a blazer that looks exactly the same color, and his truck is labeled as pewter. I’m kind of confused if my truck had a different glove box put in or something. Any info or advice would really be appreciated
Maybe you could look for the paint code in other locations on the truck. Sometimes it’s stamped on parts like the door or under the hood.

That’s a good idea. I’ll check under the hood and see if there’s anything else I can find.
Double-check the trim codes too as they sometimes indicate the original color or any options. Could help clear up any confusion.

Oh, I didn’t think about the trim codes. I’ll look those up and see what I find.
There’s a good chance the glove box was swapped. If the color just looks different when compared side by side, it might not be the same as your coworker’s blazer.
