Bilstein shock boot question

I recently purchased some Bilstein shocks from the WS6 store and was considering painting the shock, but wanted to know where I could find a different color shock boot that will fit. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Rock auto has strut bellows (moog#K90462). I'm planning to order a set of Bilsteins from WS6Store soon, and since they apparently only come with bellows on two of them, I was planning to buy a pair for the others. All of the bellows rock sells appear to be black.

Only the rears come with the covers on them. The fronts reuse the factory black covers.

I don't even have the dust boots on the front of mine. Factory boots were busted when taking apart the original assembly years back.

Bilstein has them in black. I found a set when I painted mine. Just have to find a source that offers them separately.
