Lexus GS300 Touch Up Paint (28 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Lexus didn't just give the GS300 a color palette; they gave it a mood board for a high-end jazz club. With 36 recorded colors, they really leaned into the "quiet luxury" aesthetic. We're talking about sophisticated hues like Midnight Indigo Pearl, Black Jade Pearl, and the legendary Diamond White Pearl Tri-coat. They even threw in some experimental vibes with Copper Brown Pearl Metallic. If your GS300 looks like it's wearing a tuxedo with a two-tone finish (like the Silver Metallic or Beige Metallic cladding), don't worry-Lexus just wanted to make sure the bottom half of the car looked as expensive as the top.

What to Watch For

Lexus paint is famously "soft." While that sounds like a cozy sweater, in the car world, it means the clear coat is a bit more sensitive to the elements than a German tank. You'll likely find the most chips on the hood or "crow's feet" (tiny cracks) on the roof and trunk if the car spent a lot of time tanning in the sun. Also, keep a close eye on the door tops and the edges of the trunk; that beautiful pearl finish can sometimes decide to part ways with the primer if it gets a nick. To find your specific match, head over to the driver's side door jamb. Look for a sticker with the letters "C/TR"-your 3-digit paint code is sitting right there, usually followed by a slash and your interior trim code.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many GS300 colors are "Pearls" or "Tri-coats," they require a little extra rhythm. Before you touch that chip, shake your paint bottle for at least 60 seconds-longer than you think you need to-to wake up those tiny metallic flakes that like to nap at the bottom. When applying, think "thin and patient." Instead of one big glob to fill a hole, dab a tiny bit in, let it dry for 20 minutes, and then come back for a second tiny layer. If you have the two-tone cladding on the bottom, remember that's a different code than your hood, so make sure you're using the right bottle for the right altitude!
