Factory paint codes

2017 Toyota Tacoma

9 factory colors were offered on the Third generation (AN300) Tacoma. Your code is on the driver's door jamb sticker on the line marked C/TR — the characters before the slash.

9 colors 4 finishes: Tri-coat, Solid, Pearl, Metallic Third generation (AN300) (2016–2023)

Changes from 2016:

Verified against 3 independent sources: 2017 Toyota Tacoma official brochure (dealer CDN mirror): https://cdn.dealereprocess.org/cdn/brochures/toyota/2017-tacoma.pdf — Color/Trim/Wheels page lists Black, Blazing Blue Pearl, Barcelona Red Metallic, Inferno, Quicksand, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Cement (TRD Pro only), Silver Sky Metallic, Super White; Toyota USA Newsroom, 2017 Tacoma TRD Pro press kit: https://pressroom.toyota.com/2017-tacoma-welcomes-new-trd-pro-lineup/ — names the identical nine-color palette and confirms Cement as TRD Pro-only; Toyota USA Newsroom, 2017 Tacoma TRD Pro (Chicago Auto Show): https://pressroom.toyota.com/2016-chicago-auto-show-tacoma-trd/ — TRD Pro offered in 'Cement, Barcelona Red Metallic, and Super White'.

TRD Pro joins the third-generation Tacoma and brings Cement 1H5, which is TRD Pro-only this year. The TRD Pro itself was offered in just three colors: Cement, Barcelona Red Metallic and Super White. Everything else carries over from 2016. PaintRef's 2017 Tacoma page is incomplete — it omits both Silver Sky Metallic 1D6 and Cement 1H5 — but the brochure and Toyota's own press release each list all nine.

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 Tacoma years

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