don't do yellow, the styling of the CL is too conservative for that color.

Howabout Redondo Redrock pearl from the 04-07 TL.

Or Lexus Pearl white, thats the one!

Black is too common a color but if I need to I'll settle for it.

you can go to any body shop and tell them that you have a project your working on and ask them to mix you up some. Give them the paint code... and be ready to spent about 200 maybe less. just let them know that your painting a coupe. The Clearcoat is the expensive part

CLs are much to curvey and rounded in shape for yellow. Makes it look like others said, a banana.. A first genner painted his CL yellow and was hated by all...... There are so many awesome colors out there man, there is a reason why not many cars are yellow...
