Ok then, Pewter it is! Thanks guys. I was gonna go pewter myself but after hearing some people (non-vette owners) say leave it black I figure I would check with the professionals here. I'll get some pics posted next week after the install.

My car...I'd go black or have them wrapped in CF. But that is my car.

Your car...your choice. Consider the contrasting if that is the effect you are after, especially since you have black on the rear. Otherwise, the pewter will look good also, but will blend into the lines of the car more.

Good luck.
