I've tried to find good side angle views, but no luck yet (haven't looked too far).
There are three of these on Columbia.
Two below thrusters...and one on the Hatch.
Looks like they were completely covered in gold foil (only the one on the hatch retained all the foil)
I'm incorporating a lot of surface 2D artwork
...not sure if I should try to 3D these things or just render them flat?
Dome things are hard to build in paper.

Here's a Youtube video where Adam Savage gets a tour of the Smithsonian restoration area. The link is at the part where they are looking at a Skylab command module, and talking about those things specifically, but through out the segment, it shows some great angles and close ups of them.
