It looks to me like a very glossy black, with white duck wings on the side. It also seems to have a two-color face mask like Georgia's Pro Combat helmet -- black center and silver/white sides.

IMO, I would portray the mirror wings as light silver/gray fading into white. That seems to be the standard portrayal of an "unbiased" (IE no reflection in it) mirror in artistry. Something like this:

That's the best thing I can come up with to portray this. And in a footnote, I would state that it looks like a mirror in case the portrayal isn't clear enough.
