The site I listed below sells spray cans of paint and clear coat for almost every make of vehicle. I used their paint and clear coat on my LX bumper a few years ago, and it was a perfect match. An interesting thing I discovered in searching for paint on line was that the actual color (based on manufacturer code) may be described by different names in different years and on different models. The code is inside the driver's side door jamb, and is usually 2 letters and a number, like 1H9.

1H9 is the Toyota paint color code called "Mercury Gray Pearl" through the 2012 model year, and was re-named "Nebula Gray Pearl" from 2013 through now. It's also been used on Toyota Avalons and Camrys. Is your 2016 LX paint called "Satin Cashmere"? That was called "Sleek Ecru" up until 2012.
