Default Skewers, black or silver?

Thought I'd hop on the "what color should I get" band-wagon for a second. For those that have seen my bike, could you please tell me whether or not you think Silver or Black skewers would look best. I'd get a seat clamp to match as well. I'm going with Hope or Salsa.

Thanks.

I vote for silver. I am over the whole "Tough Guy Black" look that everywheel built seems to be these days......black hubs, spokes, nipples and rims. I am going back to building with silver rims and spokes.....ala Mavic Ksyriums.

I vote silver, but it depends on what your new fork looks like.
Go for the Hopes!

SILVER, it would make your bike look a lot nicer when it's clean

That is funny that you mention the "tough guy black" look, lol, my truck is all black, with black wheels and tinted windows.

Anyhow, thanks for the input everyone, I still am torn on to go with the black or silver. I think the silver would accent the white/silver Santa Cruz sticker on my downtube as well as other decals on the frame.

Maybe I can photoshop them and see how the silver would look vs. the exisiting black that I have now.
