Smashed bed into utility pole!!!!

well in the snow i guess i used to much go juice. i swung in 4x4 into a telephone pole. i am getting a new bed but its coming off a greene 02, and my 96 is white!
I am looking to change the entire trucks color, and seeing that the bed will be off we can paint it much easier. I love the gts viper blue metallic, and also i love the rootbeer brown of the
01's. I just dont the code for that one.... I was looking to get the viper silver meatallic for the bottom of the doors for the two tone.... any one have any ideas on what the brown color code is, or anyother unique colors? im looking for uniqueness, but nothing bright like neon greens something simple and subtle....

Chestnut pearl, dont know the code though. You should be able to find the code at the body shop easy enough.

Mines Chestnut pearl with silver on the bottom, and I think it is beautiful!

Viper Silver Pearl Metallic Is PA9. Dark Chestnut Pearl Metallic Is PU3 But Was Not Avail On 01's. Closest Thing Available On An 01 Was Dark Garnet Red Code XRV. I THINK BOTH PB3 INTENSE BLUE PEARL METALLIC AND PB5 ELECTRIC BLUE PEARL METALLIC ARE NICE AND YOU WONT SEE THEM ON A RAM UNLESS ITS BEEN REPAINTED. GIVE ME AN IDEA WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AND I CAN GET YOU THE CODE.

Viper Gts Blue Code Pbe Dupont Stock Code Is B9638k. Viper Silver Pa9 Dupont Stock Code B9844k. Still Not Sure On The Other But I Did Find Xvl Which Is Called Amber Fire It Was On '00' And '01' Rams But I Think It Looks A Little Lighter Than A Rootbeer Color. Another Color I Think Is Interesting And Its In The Same Neighborhood Is Pur Sienna Pearl Metallic Used On The Grand Cherokee.

The paint code for the brown on that truck in post #10 is PU1, Dark Chestnut Pearl Coat.

My truck is painted that color but without the silver lower.

According To PPG And Dupont PU1 Was Only Used Up To '99. PTL Or XTL Sierra Bronze Was '00 & '01 According To Both. If You Can Get The Vin Off That Truck Call The Dealer Or Give Me The Last 9 Digits And I Will Find Out For Sure.
