When you open the driver's door, there is a VIN label either on the bare metal of the door itself or the bare metal of the lower B pillar.
Have you checked these labels? The color code should be on it, under the VIN bar code.

For example: My 2001 Lexus Rx300 has Silver body color. The code given for my paint color is "1C0" which corresponds to: "Millenium Silver Metallic".

does the VIN label actually say color on it? I looked and the label I saw mostly talked about tires and where the car was made.

This one can provide a nice spec sheet on your rx300, including the color. Mine is "Golden Pearl".

That is great. I printed it out and have all the info in a file now. According to the list my interior color is LBOO, what does that mean? I was looking at the Loyds website and it list by color name not number.

I don't know if "Interior " refers to the color alone or the color and material. I believe Lexus offered leather or cloth, in grey or tan.

My car is tan leather. The spec sheet said Interior LA00.

My 2002 is a 'BURNISHED GOLD MET' color, with LB00 interior. Just like Phil01, my interior is tan leather.

This link https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...codes-etc.html lists 'LB00' as 'Cashmere'.
