I have a 98 es300 with two tone color. my paint trim code is 1b2/lf61. I found 1b2 which I assume is the primary color, but I would like to know what is the color for the lower cladding. the lower cladding looks like gun metal, but I need to know the exact name or number

i think its just a guess and check kinda deal, because i have a scrach on the lower part, but the guy told me lexus doesnt have a color code for it, only for the upper.

Thats wrong. Lexus does have a color code for ALL their paints. I recently bought touch up paint for the gray bottom part of my 95 es (From the dealer), and they matched up perfectly.
Just go to the dealer with the VIN # and they can get the paint color for you.

I would go to a paint shop and have them match up the color because your paint won't but the same color it was in 98 due to fading etc. Also our body guy told me when looking at mine that you can't blend pearl paints. The only way to do it is to paint the whole section.

I just need to paint a small section to prevent rust from spreading. I will go with the original. I wanted the lower clad paint # so I could just order both color online. I will see if I could catch the lexus dealer after work, would the toyota dealer be able to help me?

He should be able to if not any good paint shop can mix you up some. You probably would pay less to do it that way and it will match better but you still will notice it since it will not blend
