I think it looks rather chavy, keep it all one colour. :)

keep it same colour, having them black or white would not only look total dog $hit, but it will look like you have got them s/h and stuck them in without painting them.

As a general rule I'd say keep them body coloured but if the rest of the car is styled the right way it might work

Same colour.
