Default Luxury Package 20 in wheel color

I have a 2016 RX350 with the Luxury Package and the 20 in wheels with the plastic inserts. All the 20 in Luxury Pkg wheels (excluding the plastic inserts) are a mid-to-dark gray color. I have a scratch in the gray on one wheel and want to find out if anyone knows what color touchup paint I should purchase to touch up the scratch? Thanks.

I think they are similar to the F sport color. A dark grey charcoal type of color. I use a permanent dark grayish marker. It covers the scratches/marks perfectly, but it doesn't fill the scratch. I can still see the scratch/chip if it's deep enough (and I look hard) but it blends very well with the stock color.

I have never been very successful using touch up paint from the dealer.

VERY VERY good question there PCW!

I'll be looking for any replies with this info included. ALSO.........Id be very interested in learning if we can obtain different color plastic inserts somewhere (Other than Lexus) as well? Does anyone have any gouge on this, or how much they do cost from the Dealership if so? Wonder how easy it is to remove em and mount new ones??

I think you would be better to get the color you want before taking delivery. Replacing them with a different color is easy, they are interchangeable. To buy a new set from Lexus is probably expensive. I would probably have them painted before another set....that's just me.
