Getting ready to install rain gutters on my 28 sport coupe. I purchased aluminum gutters. Should these be painted or left natural aluminum? If painted, what color?

"Generally, steel mouldings were prepainted to match the top material and installed after the body was painted, except Sport Coupe drip mouldings that were prepainted to match the upper body. Aluminum mouldings were installed earlier and painted with the body."
