Paint code for Work VS XX Extreme Gold (XG)

I bought some Work VS XX for really cheap but the faces are in chrome. I would like to repaint them to the original extreme gold finish. I contacted Work already but they told be that they are not allowed to give out the paint code. I know that there are lots of VS XX's out there, even on this forum there are about 4 sets for sale right now and someone must have repainted their wheels gold. Does anyone have the paint code for the original Work VS XX Extreme Gold?? Any help will be greatly appreciated

You want 'em gold? You could just get gold powder coated right over the chrome. Thats what I did on my VS-SD's:

Yes i want them in gold. The chrome is flaking so I will probably have to acid dip the faces to strip the chrome but ill have to talk to the painter first. But first I need a paint code for that specific gold. Anyone????

I think you best bet is to just have the painter try to match the color as best as possible. I know that's what most people have to do to repaint their brembos or try to get that brembo "gold" on other calipers. I don't think the companies really like to give out the information.


just my .02
