Looks great! I would like the same for mine.

Give it a month to accumulate some dirt and grime from the road to see if it naturally matches with some exposure to the elements. If not, then I'd suggest looking into altering the colour. I think it may just be brighter metal work because it isn't oxidised. At least, that's how I see it. It may be different in person if either mesh is coating already.

Or perhaps a very thin coat of a semi-gloss black? I'd be concerned that the paint would chip and look awful in time, so I'd likely leave it as it is!

As a kit, separately, your choice. Prices vary pretty wildly depending on vendor (Mina, others, I.m.o. = quality), etc. Google search will turn up lots of options.
