Default What color is my car?

I know it's a dumb question but I've heard there are 2 kinds of white factory colors
It's 2008 IS250 AWD btw
I just wanted to make sure before I buy a front lip and rear spoiler to match my car perfectly.

Check your VIN plate for color code to be certain. No need for guessing.

actually, we don't have the 2006 IS, so we don't have Crystal white. and the Starfire Pearl in the middle east is called, White Pearl Crystal Shine, cheesy name I know.

without this forum, I wouldn't know anything about my car

Post more pics/take more pics, durring the middle of the day with no shadows OR just click on 'my car' in my sig/click on the 'offical starfirepearl' thread and compare that way.

BUT...

Taking more pics and posting them is much better
