Did you ever end up powder coating your wheels? Would love to know if it’s possible to get something similar to the frozen gold finish

I might be a "bit late to the party" but if it helps I tried to replicate the original colour and used Porsche Weiss (white) Gold (Paint code 539) on my repro alloys and it is pretty close. I chose high gloss lacquer rather than matt though.

Not yet. Switching to my winter set in the next month or so, I'll probably powder coat over the winter.

Yeah the Powder arrived today at the wheel refurbishment company so will see what the colour is like first. Ordered 7lb of Bazzinga Gold from Prismatic Powders and had it drop shipped over into the UK.

He has asked for some pictures of my wheels so he can do a test wheel to see what the colour is like first before doing them. If I'm not happy with the colour I will go and get them done Ferric grey as you can go wring with that.

I will keep you all posted as I get results, quite new year so still getting used to being on forums again.

F32 owner checking in. I just dropped off some 763m reproductions for powercoat. I chose Champagne gold because they had that in stock. 3 week turn around time. I'll be sure to report back.

Thanks! That’s exactly what I’m looking for. I was gonna go for it, but that color has been out of stock the past few weeks….at least for Canadians.

So...I bent a wheel and sent it out to be repaired. In doing so, the repair company dropped it on it's face. As you stated, this color is on back order. So they agreed to coat all 4 of my wheels in the color of my choice no charge. Almost all the golds are on back order, so I went with Arizona Beige II. It's gold, not beige. Maybe a little too gold, but they are incredible none the less.

Both colors look great on your black car but I'm loving the champagne gold subtlety. I could see that looking great on my white Cayman or light blue Mustang. Did you do a clear top coat of any kind?

Has OP or any user done this yet? Im planning on painting my style 313 wheels in this color but I'm not sure which code or color name use to get them painted and get the closest match to the original gold used on style 763m.

Hey man,

I just got my wheel powder coated champagne gold, but it does not look anywhere close to yours, its looks more grayish silver to me. I can hardly see the gold color unless the sun really shine on it, but even that, it's not anywhere as close to yours. Any idea why?
