In various articles many people write:

Use various powders or films to make the gold canopy on the F-117.

I'd point out that the Revell kit uses yellow tinged clear plastic
and it looks really good.

At the scale of the models that are available, the gold flakes that
would be used to simulate this would have to be monatomic sized particles
to stay in scale.  In other words, it's impossible.  Look at the
Revell kit and compare it to the pictures, you'll probably realize
it's close enough.

There's times when you can't be exactly perfect when building a model...
