swaping new exhaust tip. black or silver?

Hey guys I just ordered my new c300 but won't get it until may but the first thing I would like to do is swap out the standard exhaust tip for a dual exhaust tip (like the one on the c450 amg). From what I've read, it's a pretty easy mod, just 1 screw holding it. Anybody have any close up pictures of it? Or any advice? I would also like your opinions on going with either black or the standard chrome/silver tips. My car will be Polar white with the night package.
Thanks!

If you're getting the night package then of course, get the black.

I ordered the night pack for my c450 and I'm thinking about swapping for the silver when it comes. To me it looks like the finishered get lost in all the black out back. Anyone wanna trade when it comes in?

That's what I was worried about. That the exhaust just blends in too much with all the black and doesn't stand out.

Anyone have a favorite place to purchase OEM parts online? I'm looking to purchase the silver c450 tips as well.

This site has a pretty good reputation. Or else there is always eBay for a fraction of the price.
