Message:
I painted my grill patriot blue from Dupli Color 5 oz cans, cc409 code, and
it is a little lighter in color and, or has more metallic flake. When in the
sun it looks lighter than truck,makes me mad, I think it would have looked
better all Black now that i look at it, I guess i I have to live with the
paint missmatch...Kinda Sucks..

You have to remember that the paint or your truck has been affected by the sun and chemicals, etc. There is no way to get an exact match, especially on a metal flake color, without repainting the entire truck.

Check out the dealer ship, they can give you a more exact match just bought some flame red paint. Mine is a 2000 and I cant tell the diffirence. Downside is paint is anywhere from 8.00 to 13.00 dollars for a 5oz can.
