Default Need Advice

Replaced carpet in my 71 and looking at the under seat tracks they where very dirty. I cleaned them up and now they are bare metal. Do I leave them like this or do I paint them and if so what color? Matching interior or other?

really youve posted in the wrong section.but unless you want them to rust badly you need to primer and then paint.color?its up to you but if you want someone else to make the decision for you semi-gloss black works good out of a spray can.
