    ATC250R gold color hub & rim question

    Hi everyone. I was just wondering if anyone knows what color gold powdercoat or spray paint would be a close match to the 1985-86 Honda ATC250R front rim and hub. I know the hubs were painted gold from the factory so I'm looking to see if anyone might know what would be a close match.

    Long story short I have a 1985 Yamaha BW200 that I'm restoring that someone put a 1985 ATC250R front end on and I need to have the rear steel BW200 wheel powdercoated or painted to match the front anodized gold color of the 250R front one. I also need to have the front hub done as well. Thanks in advance!

    Great, thank you. Is that a two part style coating where the put on a "chrome" color (actually just a bright silver) first and then a translucent gold over it?

    Nope, it's a single application.

    I used gold Duplicolor engine enamel on my hubs and some touch up on my swingarm. It's not a perfect match but close enough that nobody ever noticed.

    I found an exact match in powdercoat for the ATC250R gold color. Prismatic Powders Spun Gold PPB5921 in case anyone is interested.
