That sounds right but im getting it as warm grey pearl.

Where did you find that out?

google is your best friend

warm grey pearl appears to be a clear coat

toyota , lexus , usa , uk, japan all seem to use different names , although the code is the same

The car has had paintwork done in what looks like this warm grey pearl because it dosen't match the rest of the car. The colour chip matches the repainted area perfectly but not the car.

Im sure the car hasn't had a colour change because the whole car colour is consistent with the inside of the doors and around the boot area. Even to the bottoms of the doors.

Can any painters out there offer any advice?

What are the chances of the wrong colour code being on the car?
