Default Frenched visors?

So I don't usually ask for opinions nor care for that matter. But I am having some trouble with this new mod. I added some visors w/my frenched trim rings and I am debating on going back to the stock chrome rings or leaving it as is.

Thoughts?

I'm running a frenched trim ring on my xb and get a lot of compliments on it....
I like them....
I think yours might flow a little better if the visors were p/c or the rings were chrome...
I would like to see a picture without the visors...

just my .02
