No you shouldnt paint this as this will cause mad noises on your rear wheels when driving..

i originally painted mine light grey:

then last summer painted them black:

which looked much better. but 6 months later they started going all brown and peeling. they now look shit.
i used hammerite as well! i thought it was supposed to be good stuff?! gonna brush them down and do them again next month.

i would remove the paint off the front face as it means the wheels wont sit flush and cause the wheels to wobble
