I still have the masks so it would not take that much effort - I even have the part used rattle can on the shelf.

I like the smart looks and the understatement of the Satin Black rather than gloss or a colour.

With Hairpins especially the brake assemblies are very much "on show" so some attention needs to be paid to them IMO - but i do not like the "Boy Racer" image of coloured or even gloss.
What's wrong with red, yellow or gold then?

Not that I have done mine yet, it's on the list of things to do.
