Default Intake Manifold Blue

Does anyone know the paint code or color name/designation for the blue on the RC F intake? I would like to get some spray paint in that color.

good luck..


my car was used by 2 companies to design their aftermarket Air Intakes, both companies told me that Lexus had no 'official' paint code for the intake available to the public/aftermarket manufactures. Both used color measurement tools, but even with dozens of samples were never able to make a 100% match.

Honda electron blue pearl is pretty close. I bought a small spray can, from duplicolor to paint part of the engine cover and it's pretty close.
