Default Intake finish opinions?

Ok, I picked up both my K&N 63-1122P intake last week..
http://www.knfilters.com/images/l/63-1122P.jpg
and my Kuryakyn #8659 servo cover..
http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/147...vo-Motor-Cover

I have an 09 FLHT in denim black with the silver motor. I'm thinking the chrome servo cover is too much with the silver motor and I can get it powder coated locally for $15 to a close denim black look. I'm thinking, in order of my preference, either:
A.) Black cover/polished intake
B.) Black cover/black intake

I also attached a side pix of my bike with the current Ventilator on it to give an idea of the paint/silver motor. Thoughts ?? Thanks

spray the servo cover silver, so it matches the motor, it'll sink in, rather than stand out.

You know, I thought about color options on the intake (silver like the motor, red Or blue) but not orange. I am kinda set on a black for the servo cover for a contrast but a color for the tube could make it pop. Hmmmm ???
