Don't paint the non rusty parts of the disk. You don't want to have to wear off a layer of paint before your brakes work.

 

These bits will still rust when you wash the car, but the rest will be sparkly and rust free.

 

As for colour, it's black for me. But it's your car, go with what you want. If you don't like it you can always change the colour.
