    That’s charcoal. I have the same door panels from a 2004 double cab.

    Colors changed in 2001 redesign

    Your interior is defintely charcoal gray (as Toyota calls it) & your tan floor mats look way off. I would have went with gray floor mats but that's just my opinion, whatever floats your boat so to speak.

    I think there’s a lot of warm tan to the plastic trim. I think it might be a regional taste thing.

    Hah perhaps you are right - though the photo I took seems a little saturated and really makes the messiness pop.

    Aside from that color is SOOOO extremely subjective.... When you factor in lighting, the device used to capture the image, how our monitors display color, and how our individual brains interpret color it becomes very clear and difficult to make an accurate assessment.

    There's a whole field of study on this stuff in medical and automotive plastics that's very complex but very interesting. :oops:

    I agree ChrisP. I think the WT website pics emphasize the warm tones of the tan, which aren’t as warm in person.
