Default Yay or Nay?

Evening all

Just painted my roof bars in aluminium, but can’t decide if it’s a good choice or bad!!

Thoughts would be welcome please?

The plastic end caps kinda ruin the look. I would consider painting the ends black, but the length of rail between the end caps aluminium. The far rail looks odd being silver other than the plastic cap.
