Edit just noticed on that same thread where I found the code graphic a nice color chart.. this is for the GS though, but thought I'd post it too
The Scion guys have also put together a good chart of colors that includes your year

Is the thread. It's good.
The color codes are confusing, because only the primary colors are colors that you can normally look up anywhere but a real lexus dealer. (I.E. Toyota dealers can't find most of the two-tone trim colors) For example:
The C/TR is the color of the car.
The A/TM is the alternate trim color. I.E. the second tone on the lower cladding. I.E. what is normally some shade of silver.
I think you're asking for the trim color.
Register & lexus.com I think they give both the primary car & trim colors on the VIN. I know they give the primary atleast.
