Lexus IS250C Touch Up Paint (19 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Lexus really leaned into the "luxury" vibe with the IS250C, offering 19 distinct shades that range from the sophisticated Glacier Frost Mica to the punchy Matador Red Tricoat. Whether you're rocking the deep Black Sapphire Metallic or the breezy Breakwater Blue, Lexus didn't just give you a car; they gave you a rolling jewelry box. They clearly went for it with the mica and pearl finishes, making sure your convertible catches every possible ray of sun.

What to Watch For

Lexus paint is legendary for its finish, but in the DIY world, it's known for being a bit "soft." This means your hood and front bumper are likely magnets for stone chips, which can sometimes lead to small flakes if left untreated. If you're driving the convertible (which, let's face it, you are), keep a close eye on the rear deck lid and the spots where the roof seals meet the body; the mechanical dance of that hardtop can sometimes rub the paint at the contact points.

To find your exact match, open the driver's door and look at the jamb for a white or silver sticker. You're looking for the letters "C/TR" (Color/Trim). The three digits immediately following that-like 077 for Starfire Pearl or 1G0 for Mercury Gray-are your golden ticket to the right bottle.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since so many IS250C colors are "Tricoats" (like Starfire Pearl or Glacier Frost), they have a lot of tiny sparkles that like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or brush for a full 60 seconds-longer than you think you need-to wake up those micas. When applying, remember that Lexus clear coat is thin and elegant. Instead of one giant glob to fill a chip, apply two or three paper-thin layers. It requires a little more patience, but it's the secret to making that repair disappear into the shimmer.
