I'm slowly making progress on the speakers. After removing the rust, I used rusty metal primer and Bondo spot glazing to fill in the rust pits. Once that dried, I did a little sanding, masking, and painted them dark gray.
I've tried enough metallic paints to know than none of them really look like the real thing so I figured dark gray would look nicer.
