Default Tungsten Pearl / Argento ICE 1G1

Hi everyone

I need to buy some paint for my car. Its paint code is 1G1, Tungsten Pearl in the US or Argento ICE in the UK.

Does anybody know if Toyota make a colour identical to the Lexus shade and if so what it is?
I know the VW group use the same paints, but didn't know whether Toyota did.

Thanks for your help

From my experience, a body shop can mix the paint for you given the paint code. Or if you're not sure of the paint code, you can provide them w/ the year and make of your car and they'll find the paint code that way.

The paint code is 1G1. That and your VIN number should be enough for a good shop to match your paint.
