“Painted” or plated? Either way, it probably wasn’t a hugely expensive piece of the decor. Not much gold is needed for either approach.

I’d be a bit miffed, if after traveling down some country road to my estate, that the gold paint chipped off.

For a good comparison 500 ounces of gold can be formed into a wire that would wrap around the entire Earth.

Typical incompetent reporting. The ignorant reporters are big on hyperbole and short on real knowlege. Paint, plating, what's the difference? At most there is probably a few thousand dollars of gold invoved.

24 Carat gold Rolls? Hardly.
