Paint Code Delemma

I just purchased a 2003 Excursion Eddie Bauer (Two Tone) 7.3L PSD. I want to put some mud flaps on it. I bought the plastic mud flaps (Paintable). I can't find the paint code. There is a "YZ" paint code for the Oxford White, but I can't locate a paint code for the metallic Tan. I called Ford with the VIN, and they were no help. I went by a paint supply house near me, and they weren't able to figure it out (They looked at the tag and we looked at the paint chips). Does anyone know what the metallic tan color is called, or better yet the paint code?

Thanks,

Greg

I know on previous year Eddie Bauers the paint code was BA. Not sure if it changed since then.

Thank you. Arizona Beige was correct, but there are 3 different Arizona Beige's. There is one exterior Arizona Beige, and two Arizona Beige choices under "Accent/Secondary" colors. The one for my truck was under the "exterior" category. A paint chip comparison proved it.
