   Have to agree, anything other than black looks tacky imo. But if you like it do it.

   here ya go mate. i put a thin blue pinstrip on myne. i think it really lifts em out makes them look much nicer. (i await yet more slatting for my choice of mods)
   
   
   btw before anyone comments the washer jets have long gone.

    pinstripe looks about as good as those gash chrome washer jets haha.
    
    just give them a fresh coat of black. or you might just be able to pull it off if you only spray bottom part if your car is the dark green

    gloss black mate colour coding does look abit chavy and tacky, but try it and see what you think before you take everyones opinions

    its all personal.unless its a white saxo and you are colour coding them then anything other than black would look odd. IMO
