I've searched google and did not find any results... so im asking my co lexus owners to tell me what are the difference between them.. i thought my car was an SFP till a verified it... so is there any difference?

 

I think Crystal White came in the earlier years and Starfire Pearl came later. Also, I think Crystal White is a brighter shade of white, and of course Starfire has pearl in it and a Tri-coat paint as well.

 

^think your right sir

 

CW is more "gray" tone while SFP is more "white" tone

 

so theres no way i can mix sfp with cw without being obvious?

 

If you know the year of your car, you'll know the color. CW = 2006. SFP = all other years.

 

^^^
I just installed an SFP GFX lip on my 2006 CW, & I can confirm that CW is more "yellow" or "cream" colored than SFP. If anything, SFP is the "brighter of the two"

You can, and you will notice a slight difference between the two when the parts are mounted together. As I said, its a slight difference that only you will notice, and would only be noticeable to others when pointed out.

I will try and take some quality pics with different lighting in the next day or two, and will post here...

Check the "comparisons" by the end of the first post.

 

Even though it doesn't have "mica" or "pearl" in its name, Crystal White is also a metallic paint.

 

I have starfire Pearl.... I want Crystal White... both options were available in 2007 I know..

I was told by the dealer there is actually metal flakes in the starfire pearl... Who knows if he was blowing smoke up my A** or not, I think he was trying to make me feel better as I wanted a pure white color. But overall it kinda has an opaque or egg shell color when all waxed up.

 

pls do.. i wanna see the difference... cause its easier to buy an SFP kit than CW
