Looking to get my HRE’s done in White Gold 539 to match the GT2RS Mag wheels. Do I need to ask the shop to clear coat them after painting?
We have the factory BBS Motorsport Paint in stock if you want to get it perfect. Let us know we can do the finishing.
And yes you need to do a final clear. To match the RS wheels you would do a satin clear.

Thanks but I'm having a local shop do it, they confirmed they can do Weissgold 539 but I'm curious if I need to give them instructions such as for them to satin clear after or if the paint code has them understand it's a satin clear.

Hey Eric, what does it cost to re-paint/finish the BBS 4x?

Yes you just need to tell them glossy or satin clear over the 539

You will be happy w the color. We used to use 539 for the longest time before we could source the BBS Paint
Ok here's my research so far in trying to find a shade of gold (powder coat) for my Brewster Green spyder. I have searched all the Rennlist threads I could find and couldn't find the answer, hopefully these images will help someone in the future. I was trying to find something like Porsche White Gold (Weissgold). Part of the learning curve is learning that the Porsche color 539 is a paint code, so after ordering the prismatic samples (amazing service by the way) I paid for a local company to make me a spray bomb of the white gold. Here are the images compared to the samples I had ordered (some of which you see in this thread).
Sterling Gold is a good match. I'm glad I ordered the spray bomb because I didn't realize the Porsche White Gold 529 was "that gold"... photos are kind of deceiving.
Spray bomb - worth the trouble spray bomb sample on my car spray bomb 539 on the left, Sterling Gold Prismatic adjacent spray bomb left spray bomb left spray bomb left spray bomb left spray bomb left, my other samples
it does change in the lighting (they all do)… the 539, of all those samples above, consistently looks the best in the varied light… even though it is a bit more gold than I’d like, I’ve decided to paint the wheels instead of powder coat to get that exact colour on the wheels and caps
