Paint code question....I know I know search bar
I know what everyone is going to say, use the search bar on the forum or Google, but I have a question about the paint codes. My truck says 500AA and I know 500 is for black is for black but what does the AA stand for?

Re: Paint code question....I know I know search bar
Don't be frustrated alone cause we are too. The two letters following the digit code is unknown for the trucks so far. From all the literature I have there's no mention of how these letters were used. After looking through the dealer invoices I have there seems to be a corrrelation to the way the truck is built. For example 500AA could mean that the main body is black but as a standard order all wheels came black. If you had a two tone the wheels would be main body color. Blue main body blue wheels with a whitevtop. No two tone then the wheels came black. I would assime the letters would change to indicate to the installer the correct combination. Rember I'm assuming here and could be way off. But isn't the mystery fun! Lol
