@MisterMikkel, unfortunately it came down to a choice between a silver drivetrain, or one that I actually wanted to use! I have to say, after friction downtube shifters prior, I'm very much enjoying a life with indexing. The bike is also significantly lighter than it was with 3x9.
Thank you @Maj - that's exactly what I was going for!
I see - I thought I remembered seeing a black and silver XT rear derailleur, but it appears I was wrong.
I'm partial to the Sram brake levers and bar end shifting myself, though I can't be bothered with indexing. I just run friction 2x9 speed.
