Default Small Dilemma

Hi guys,

Need a little help deciding. I have just recieved my Prosport gauges and I am going to fit them in a ATI pod, thing is it comes with a carbon fibre face plate type thing and I am unsure as whether to use it or not (sorry about the pictures just took some quick ones on my phone)
Without

With

Thing is as they are 52mm gauges and the face plate hole are slightly bigger, does it look odd? Or dare I say it chavvy?

If I don't fit it there are already holes in it, one of which I will put an LED in for my alarm, the others will need filling and I will probably paint the face matt black.

Hardly a life or death decision but any opinions welcome
Cheers
Paul

To be honest I didn't go for a carbon pod because I thought to match it I would have to get the dash kit, but I don't think they do them for '05 on do they?

Other option is to spray it the same colour as the standard dash surround anybody know what the colour code for that is?

Cheers
