I'm having a set of wheels done by Colorwerks this month and can't wait to see how they turn out.

Sorry for the thread revival - I'm going through the whole color selection process for my wheels - decided I wanted Aurum so I ordered the center caps, here's a photo of the prismatic swatch for Satin Poly Gold against an OEM center cap:
Has anyone been successful with a closer match, or is this as good as it gets?

This thread has me thinking again.... I am just not a big fan of the green stripe on my wheels,... Thinking of getting rid of it for all black, or going this satin gold.... Hmm. Butler in Atlanta wants $325 per wheel for gold, $275 for black (all in (tires off, back on, balanced etc...)

My only suggestion is to try and get a swatch of Walts Gold and test it next to the cap. It is a little lighter and with a little more silver and it might just be a better match than Satin Poly which is a little darker as evidenced by your photo. Prismatic actually has a example of it on a GT3 on their site. https://www.prismaticpowders.com/gal...ls-in-pmb-4053
I think we have a winner.

I know its kind of a janky solution and not long term but i didnt care for the red stripe on my ducati wheels so i bought black satin tape specifically made to cover it. unless you were right up on it you didnt notice. Just a thought. For the green stripe that is...

Sorry to once again revive a thread. Looking to do this to my wheels on my 955 Cayenne Build - Does anyone have any updated photos of Walt's Gold finished? It seems it may be a winner but now I am all confused on which I like better from all of these gorgeous pictures. For references, here is what I am trying to accomplish with the very same wheels - stolen from another member in my facebook group and Tiele.com. The wheels shown in both pictures below were ordered from Tiele.com - which is displayed in the last picture. So despite the lighting & filters these are all the same wheels.
This angle/lighting/filter looks more yellow but they are the same wheels from both other pictures.

I have a set of 991.2 3RS wheels in Aurum Gold from the factory and would consider trading with someone with black wheels. Lizard green striping would be a plus.
