Tamiya's TS21 Gold is some of the nicest gold I have ever used, very tight grained and in scale looking. Highly reccomended.

Re: Paints: Gold

Humbrol MetalCote Gold is pretty good. But for WRX I would say go for the Tamiya Gold Acrylic, it's pretty close I think.

Re: Paints: Gold

Gold Leaf's texture afterspraying imo is rather coarse. Titanium Gold would be better. But spray in more coats to give it a more concentrated look.
