Seems to depend on which Mirage it is and which air force: http://www.network54.com/Forum/149674/thread/1422681041/Mirage+3-5+Wheel+well+colors

The majority of the pics on line suggest that, for a Mirage III, it's silver/aluminium, sometimes with a yellow-tinted primer or translucent preservative over parts of the well above the wheels.

Do a google image search on "dassault mirage walkaround" : that'll get you more pics of real aircraft rather than other peoples' models.
