Engine Splash Pans Color?

I bought a set of new stamped engine splash pans off ebay for $49. They appear to be good quality to me; having limited knowledge of a Model A. Can someone tell me what color they should be painted? Jerry

Have them powder coated gloss black. Powded coating resists gasoline drips from your carburetor.

make sure they dont have any cracks in them and powder coating black is a good move.
snyders has them for 72.00 already powder coated....

Just remembered, I STILL have Minerva's powder coated pans hidden behind the file cabinet!! I'll dig them out & give them to Vermin for Christmas!

I used the fuel proof spray paint from a hobby store for mine. No problems with fuel hurting them a bit.

Sometimes Ebay purchases are not the best financially. Snyders at $70 are already powder coated and it will cost you more than $20 to have the Ebay ones powder costed.
