Hello, I have gb minilites and I am wanting to have them powder coated,or I might paint them myself.

But I want to know the paint number from someone who may have them thereselves, or a few numbers to choose from as I have no clue...

I will attach a picture of the kind of gold I am going for, any help appreciated :)

Your best bet is to go to your local powder coaters and see what they have. Most likely ral colour range, they will probably have colour swatches.
Before you decide and commit make sure they have the colour in stock as this will effect the price, maybe worth trying a few places first and also try wheel refurbishment places as they will probs carry gold powedercoat for subaru's and the like.

Can't help you with the colour code, but thought I'd point you at this site for a look round - Lepsons. I haven't used them myself (yet) but have seen the very high quality of their work on a neighbour's car. Incredible finish. They have a gold in their 'standard' colour range, but also do custom colours if the one you're after is darker.

 

Alternatively, if you track down the colour code and fancy going in with a face mask, some metal filler and a rattle can (and why not! ) - here's a quick n easy refurb guide I bookmarked years ago that might be handy. I saved it mainly because I liked the way he masked off the tyre :)
