For me, yes they are.
Those that know my car, at least in better days, know I am strongly driven to present a clean, coordinated and refined impression, tied together by the entire car’s details.
The machined aluminum and black wrinkle paint of the extinguishers provided the appearance I felt coordinated best with the rest of the car’s details. Two bright red decal-covered, plastic nozzles Pep Boys offerings or the fully chromed hot-Rod units were not ever under consideration.
I adhere strongly to the approach that a car’s character is best defined by all the little details that are casually overlooked but subtly tie everything together.
Bling for the sake of bling is not on my menu.
