Need opinions.
I want to get mudgaurds for my Magnetic Gray TCH. Since it is a dark color would you go with plain black ones or would you pay $50 more to get them painted?

I've got black ones on my wife's car, (Desert Sand Mica), and they look great. I was afraid to get the painted ones because I've seen cars with them where the paint has chipped badly.

I have had silver cars for years and usually just take the black ones. The TCH I got had colro coded mud guards so it was a no brainer, but I never think twice about putting blakc on my silver cars normally. Looks rather like they belong.

I like the look with the mudguards, but since I'm holding out for a SE-style body kit, I don't think it's worth putting on the painted mudguards right now.
