Help - paint code 2 tone
I have a 2000 Lexus ES300 Millennium Silver paint code 1C0. How do I find the color of the lower panels of the vehicle? The 2nd tone?
Thanks!

I also believe that the paint codes are in the spare tire wheel well. Yank out the tire and there should be a sticker in there which tells you what codes are.

paint code lower cladding
I just called the Lexus dealer about the code for the lower cladding because it is not listed on my door jam sticker they will tell you the code for the lower cladding BUT they probally do not stock it like mine so I went online and found it and
it costs $14.00 for a tube of touch up, problem solved! The company is called expresspaint.com

Better late than never with good news: I have a 2000 Lexus ES300 Millennium Silver with a paint code 1C0. The Code for the Gray cladding accent is not listed in the door jam. However, during a review of the previous maintenance records on the car that the sellers passed onto me, I discovered the receipts for collision repairs including a paint code for the body side molding (Gray). It is listed as 1B2. I then googled "Dupli Color Perfect Match 1B2" and it came back as BTY1605 (Antique Sage Pearl). The picture and color on the can looks like an exact match, so I've ordered it. I previously used their product for the Millennium Silver (1C0 = BTY1613) and it worked great...Either product can be found on Amazon for about $8.50. Hope that helps.
