Default Looking for Painted Billet fuel doors... Post yours up!!

Sending some stuff in for paint later today and one of the items going in is a SHR billet fuel door. Looking for some ideas on what to do with the cap screws in the perimeter... paint them to match, leave them as is, or replace with black screws??

Looking for some reference photos, so post up any aftermarket fuel caps that you have painted body color. As a reference, here's a SHR door...

Thanks Cutter as I was hoping you would post a pic as yours gave me the idea originally

I am leaning towards just having the screws painted as I can always swap them out for black or stainless down the road.

Here is a shot of mine. I went with not painting the screws. I think it works well with the black car.
