Factory paint codes

2017 Toyota 4Runner

8 factory colors were offered on the Fifth generation (N280) 4Runner. Your code is on the driver's door jamb sticker on the line marked C/TR — the characters before the slash.

Changes from 2016:

Verified against 2 independent sources: 2017 Toyota 4Runner official brochure (dealer CDN mirror): https://cdn.dealereprocess.org/cdn/brochures/toyota/2017-4runner.pdf — Color/Trim page lists Midnight Black Metallic, Nautical Blue Metallic, Barcelona Red Metallic, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Classic Silver Metallic, Blizzard Pearl, Super White, with a separate TRD Pro column reading Cement, Barcelona Red Metallic, Super White; PaintRef Toyota cross-reference, 2017 4Runner: https://www.paintref.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?year=2017&make=Toyota&model=4Runner&rows=100 — returns exactly these 8 codes.

Cement 1H5 becomes the TRD Pro exclusive, replacing Quicksand, which leaves the 4Runner entirely. TRD Pro was offered in Cement, Barcelona Red Metallic and Super White. The off-road grade is renamed from Trail to TRD Off-Road this year, but the color roster is unaffected.

Where to find your paint code

Driver's door jamb (B-pillar), on the white or silver build sticker, on the row labelled C/TR.

Driver's door jamb

  1. Open the driver's door and look at the B-pillar at roughly latch height.
  2. Find the row labelled C/TR on the printed sticker.
  3. The three characters before the slash are the paint code.
  4. The characters after the slash are the interior trim code, not paint.

If the sticker is missing or faded

  • Call any Toyota dealer parts desk with your VIN. They can read the code off the build record, usually in under a minute and at no cost.
  • Genuine Toyota touch-up part numbers embed the paint code — part 00258-004X0-21 is code 4X0.

Other 4Runner years

Color availability changed year to year. Codes often carried over; names sometimes did not.
