I believe the paint code is a 3 digit number that is on the sticker on your door panel that displays your VIN ... I know the paint code for mine (Blck Onyx) is 202 ... I remember a thread a while back that listed all the names of the paints and the corresponding codes ... try searching for that

The paint code can be found on the driver's side sticker located in the door jam. It's right under the bar code and starts with "CTR: (Paint code number)."

Here's a list of paint codes for Lexus... I don't know which codes correspond to which years and gens. but just check the number on your door jam with one of these to confirm.

040 Super White 1E0 Flint Mica 1F7 Silver

209 Black Sand Pearl 3P2 Black Cherry 8Q1 Bright Blue

6S5 Mystic Sea 6S6 Midnight Pine 1C8 Silver

1E7 Silver Streak 8P9 Blue Marlin 8P4 Indigo Ink

1E3 Grey Metallic 202 Black 3Q3 Dark Red Metallic

4Q2 Beige Mica 6S7 Dark Green 8Q2 Blue Metallic

3P5 Grayish Rose 4P7 Mystic Gold 8S4 Sky Blue

8Q0 Dark Blue 3P5 Grayish Rose 051 Diamond White

199 Alpine Silver 3N1 Cinnabar 4P1 Antique Bronze

4P2 Burnished Gold 6Q7 Imperial Jade 8M6 Spectra Blue

1C0 Millenium Silver 062 Crystal White 8P8 Dark Blue

1C6 Graphite
