Default BBS Gold, powdercoat or paint?



Just picked up the 2013 STi. However the BBS on this thing are Silver.

I really want the old Gold back, so I am thinking of coating these ones.

I am finding it really hard to find a color match in powder coating. Does anyone know how the original BBS are coated in the gold, is it anodized or something?


Anyways, I either find a good powder match, or paint.

If I get them stripped, how would I go about painting with the Grim speed BBS to make them look shiny and new. Is there a powder coat clear that I can have put over the top to make them really tough? I just want them to hold up....
