Cool Here's My Contribution.
O.K. Here is what we did to the one in the wifies IS350.
Black Onyx, Smokey Granite, and Matador Red.


Btw, my son designed this paint scheme. He is only 10 years old.

I've always loved the way the engine cover looks in Matador Red Mica... Anyway, here's my engine cover, painted Glacier Frost Mica:

I wish I did, but I can't take the credit. We had the body shop do it. Lots of time invested...Tape...Paint...Tape...Paint...Tape...Paint...Clearcoat...Colorsand=$400

I'm guessing mine is the same as 3GS.

Note: This is not painted, just wanted to show off how my IS300 engine cover looks like.

I believe that would be the IS250 engine cover.
