The black is to plain. The chrome stands out more and bling bling.

I put the chrome ones on mine, I think they stand out nice against the maroon paint. The girl I bought the car from was going to put gold ones on that she thought would look great. Obviously no accounting for taste.............

But to answer your question, identical bolt pattern, pick your finish and go with it.
