From what I am reading the hardtop/rain gutter are one color and the headlight bezel is another.

I would keep it simple and go with stainless. Have you powder coated your bumperettes Vegas gold?
i have not coated yet. I may choose the Prismatic Champagne Gold instead of the Vegas Gold. Both are very close. It is a bit closer to some earlier interior paint done. Will send pictures after completed. Stainless bolts seem right as powdercoat on used bolts will be a problem upon makeup. Thanks

RAL 7043 "Traffic Grey B" was a perfect match for my seat backs and rollbar.

Posting more than I know
To make this easier to find next time I’m searching. The Toyota pewter powder coat color that’s the best match from Prismatic Powder Coating is Vegas Gold per my direct observation of parts coated by @GA Architect and sent to me for comparison to my brand new OEM factory front bumper (photos earlier in the thread).
Don’t know why it took me 2 hours to find this thread again!
Hope this helps someone.

That’s Vegas Gold on the door regulator on a stock bumper. That’s Vegas gold on the bottom and JT Outfitter spray paint on the top with the glove box covers and cluster faces. JT outfitter paint on ash tray. Vegas gold on spare tire carrier.
Just did all my seat frames and misc. interior pieces in my 72 in Vegas Gold, based on this thread. Everything came out amazing. I was using Duplicolor BGM0528 Fine Silver Birch on some items on my 76 that I'm "going cheap" on, and it's almost impossible to tell the difference in color between it and Vegas Gold! I seriously doubt you can get any closer to OEM than either of these options.
Vegas Gold on the left, Duplicolor Fine Silver Birch on the right. Only difference is the shine from the clear I had just put on the Duplicolor.

Has anyone gone with a clear powder coat over the Vegas Gold. Prismatic recommends a clear top coat for exterior use. I know it’s another step, but some comments have mentioned the color is slightly duller than rattle cans. Link to Vegas Gold.

Been out of stock for a while so going to try Prismatic Steel Silver.. found another member that claimed to be a better match than Vegas Gold.

Keep us informed.
All mine will have base coat, "steel silver" and exterior parts will receive a top coat most likely. Just trying to find a drivers seat frame for a 62-71 then I will be taking it to sandblast/powder.

When yo
u say top coat do you mean a Clear coat that is Powder coat applied?
Correct, prismatic suggests it for exterior use.

I am not familiar with how the clear powder coat works. Is this a second powder application, which is clear, that is applied then baked for second time?
I would assume a second bake, I’m not a powder coat applicator. I just drop it off at the shop and pay the unexpectedly large bill at the end haha.
Be careful with having them sand blast thin metal parts like your cluster face or ashtray lid. Those parts warp and put very easily. The powder coat shows everything.
