Lexus GX 550 Touch Up Paint (8 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Lexus really leaned into the "rugged adventurer" vibe for the GX 550, giving us 12 distinct color options. While you can still get the executive classics like Mercury Gray Metallic and Graphite Black Metallic, they definitely "went for it" with outdoorsy shades like the clay-toned Earth and the fan-favorite Nori Green Pearl. Whether you're driving the flat, tactical-looking Incognito or the shimmering Sonic Quartz Tricoat, this car was built to look good-even when it's covered in trail dust.

What to Watch For

To find your exact match, open the driver's side door and look at the ID plate on the jamb; your code is right next to the "C/TR" (Color/Trim) label. Now, for the reality check: Lexus paint is famously "soft." While it looks incredible in the showroom, the GX 550 is prone to small hood chips and wear around the running boards if you're actually using those side steps. You might also notice some "ghosting" or splotches on the hood from the protective film used during shipping-don't panic, it's usually just surface residue that a light cleaning will fix before you start your touch-up.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since colors like Deep Blue Mc Effect and Nori Green rely on heavy pearl and metallic flakes, your bottle of touch-up paint is basically a snow globe. Shake it for a full two minutes-long after you think you're done-to wake up those sparkles so they don't all settle at the bottom. When filling a chip, think "thin layers." Use the tip of your brush to drop a tiny amount of paint into the center of the chip and let it spread itself out. It's much better to apply three thin coats than one big, gloppy mountain of paint that never quite levels out.
