ISF Badge Color - Blue accent color?
I'm looking to paint my calipers soon. I'm looking to match the blue outline on our F Badges. Is the blue on our F badges the same color as the Ultrasonic Blue or is it different? I've searched the forums and google and just can't find an answer. I've got a Smoky Granite Mica ISF and think it would compliment it nicely.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks everyone. I think I'll do the USB. You're right about the anodized blue. I think that's what throws it off a bit.
I was tossing around the idea of Lambo green/yellow color too, but don't know if I want to go that bright. Lol

Hope its okay to re-start this thread: Getting back to the originator's question, I had the very same thought to try to match not USB, but the accent blue from the logo and use it for calipers. I even tried to email Lexus to ask for the RGB code for that blue but i've not heard back yet.
I also wondered about matching the contrast blue stitching you see if you have black leather seats... though i don't think its the same blue as around the IS-F logo.
If the thread starter went with USB on the calipers, I'd love to see photos...

I found these guys just now. Looks like you can order the paint in spray form and cans of quart and gallon size.

The G2 caliper paint people also have a product for the calipers.

Just make sure you get a paint on kit like the 2nd link. Not a spray kit. It will chip. I also recommened that you do several coats. I was told do the fronts then the backs, once you get done with backs you will be able to put another coat on fronts and then rears. Repeat.
If that made sense. Also if you put a sticker on like f logo or lexus or brembo. Make sure you clear coat sticker.

I used the G2 caliper paint in (21 WA779J Electron Blue Metallic Chevrolet Corvette Custom Color Match Brake Caliper Paint) I too was looking to match the Fbadge.. I am happy with this color.

I sanded with 600 grit, did it till everything was nice and smooth. Then did 2 light coats of vht silver, 4 coats of vht blue and 3 coats of vht clear... Was really happy with the outcome. Looks sharp in the sunlight, plus the white from the sticker makes it look nice
