I like Krylon Fusion Satin Black.

I haven't tried it, but Plasti-Dip is known to work well too.

Plasti-dip is supposed to work well:

I used kitchen appliance paint on the ring around my gage cluster in white. Left everything else black.

I think you'd have to get a very dark bronze/gold for it to not look cheezy. Maybe add a brushed effect to it by scoring it with scuff pad when the paint is cured, then throw a coat of clear over it.

i used krylon and it worked awesome and dried in 20 min. i suggest rubbing down the pieces a lil bit with a scouring pad just to get like armour all and shit off. it takes the shine off but dont go too far with it.

Krylon is the cheapest and best paint for interior color match.

True that, and some lacquer thinner and a tack cloth don't hurt either.
