[Public-List] cowl vent color etiquette

[Bill Young]

Here's one for the traditionalists:  At long last I've found old, heavy bronze cowl vents for my boat.  Two are unfinished inside, and two are painted in a garish, almost neon red.  Is the color/finish of the interior of the cowl vent simply a matter of personal preference, or is there a preferred way to do it?  In case it matters, the hull is flag blue (a very dark blue).  The deck is white, the nonskid light blue.
Thanks very much for your input
