In my experience the only way to get a colour right is to get the new paint colour mixed and matched to an original sample.
Codes and RAL etc vary hugely. I'm just getting my Jota done and the code for "International Orange" varies from red to brown :)

What was the original colour, silver or gold?
Both were used. Plus black on the Corsa.
For silver I would go with what I use on the 180 wheels, RAL 9006 White Aluminium.
No clue if it is gold you want.
 
It also depends what colour base coat you use and where in the world you are.
It's why your colourful holiday clothes look eye-wateringly bright when you get home.
White, light grey or mid grey will all give different final shades.
Try some samples before you strip the originals.
