: Is "fire red" the same as "victory red"?

My window sticker says my truck's exterior color is "Fire Red." I am ready to order some prepainted parts, but the only reds I can find are "carmine red" and "victory red." Victory red looks right to me - anybody know for sure, or can you point me in the right direction on how to find out?

Thanx for any advice!

Get the paint code off of the sticker in the glove box.

What a quick response! This board is awesome!

Thanx! I knew they looked like the same color...

I took a look at the sticker in the glove box, but I dunno what I am looking for. There's a wad of three-digit alphanumeric codes; how can you tell which one is the paint code?

Again - thanx for helping out a newbie!
