Default '06 ES 330- Black Diamond paint

I just purchased the '06 ES 330 Black Diamond Edition. If I ever get into an accident, I'm worried about being able to match the Black Diamond paint. I have the Color Code, but what do you all think? Would a shop ever be able to make it look even decent with this special paint?

Just don't think about it (that is, the accident part) at all. Keep your Lex looking clean, drive safe and you'll be fine

Thats right... don't even think of an accident when you purchase a vehicle... I am sure when they can paint it they can match it... as long as it is not a custom painted car with many different layers of colors.. at least...

Enjoy your ride safely...

Btw... DiamondBLK

How much did you pay for this baby and what kind of packages did you get with it.. just curious..

I got mine Dec 2005.. (without Navi though) they did not have the Navi version with the cashmere Int.. so I had to settle for the non navi....but I am enjoying it..

I traded in my '98 ES 300 (white / silver) so I got a pretty good deal on the 330. I don't have the navigation, either, because I could not find one a Black Diamond that had it. Mine is black wtih black leather interior with the Black Diamond rims. I love it. Also, I don't have the Mark Levinson.
