Older ones are chrome, newer ones are a dark metallic grey.

I have one of each on the same bike, it's doing my OCD in

They are M9020, I also got a set of M9000 which are a darker grey,but thought the trail brakes would be the best ones to use.

Any ideas of how to paint them black? Too bright for me.
