2007 GS300LE paintcode

[Robbenson1976]

Hi

I need to repair and repaint the front splitter on my GS. Paint code is 1E0. When I try to order paint, there seem to be two different colours, flint mica or dark grey. Anyone any idea which is correct? 

Thanks in advance.

Is the paint code not listed on the drivers door, b pillar?  

I'm sure there was a similar question about this only the other day. Either that or the heat has got to me...

Most Lexus colours are named differently in certain markets (ie: the US), so they tend to have at least a couple of variations. In this case, Flint Mica appears to be the US name for 1E0.

They're both the same colour as John mentioned. The US always change their names to much better ones IMO.

For example, Arctic Pearl (UK) = Starfire Pearl (US) and Sonic Red = Infrared etc etc

Thanks for your help, just getting my head around Lexus/Toyota and the differences in paint colours. I'm guessing as long as I have the paint code I'm ok. Just received an original UK spec brochure for the GS LE. As ever, I had to laugh as in that brochure 1E0 is listed as Aleutian grey.....
