I noticed there are 2 Patriot Blue paint codes PB7 and PBT. Does anyone know why there are 2 codes? Are they slightly different colors? Will a PBT fender look off on a PB7 truck or vice versa?

Everything I can find uses them interchangeably like they are the same color. If I can get him on the phone tomorrow, I will call my painter and ask him to look up the mix chart for both of them to verify any differences.

Thank you for your effort. I ended up purchasing the PBT fender and putting on my PB7 truck. While I still dont have an answer to why, Everyone should be happy to know It matched perfect. You cannot tell the difference. Hope this helps someone in the future.

Can't help us if you didn't tell us which one you went with :)


The difference is the variance in the master color batch.
Painters will look at a B7 or a WB7 and mix off that.

You can use paint sources like paint scratch.com to help you with the VIN decoding.

My 07 truck has code of PB7 and I purchased a fender off an 06 truck with a PBT code. I cannot tell the difference. They are identical.
