Yes, that was a repainted machined one. And I think they'll match enough. Still, if you want to hold off, until this weekend (after finals!), I'll check the local yards down here. One you do paint 'em, there's no going back.

I primed and used 3 coats of Rustoleum Charcoal Gray (or at least I think that was the color) - no clear coat. The color will conceal brake dust very well. :)

Not that it'll matter now, since I picked 5 Virgo's recently. Those have all been repainted too, though I used Aluminum Metallic + clear coat for the finish.

Not as nice as bead-blasted and powder-coated, but for less than $10 invested, they come out alright.
