Whatever colour you wish. I painted mine black. If you paint the working area be most careful about bedding it in. And be sure to clean out
around the caliper pistons.

I'd paint it Satan black
This is a racing colour that I always use
It's a bit like satin black but much darker

All the silver parts on the Titanic were painted with silver wheel paint for durability. Looks exactly like the semi-gloss silver the factory used

I did mine with hammer paint. It looks so much better. It gives it texture.
