Poll: which is the better looking rear end? AKA who wore it better...

[nautiques4life]

So I had Nautique install the aftermarket NSS on my 2012, works great, whatever... Looks like a complete bolt on afterthought, so I decided I needed to make it a little more stealth. Putting a poll up to the minds of PN... What say you?
Because I wasn't sure about any of this I started with plasti-dip, if it was terrible figured I could rip it off. Settled on 2 tone to camouflage it with the lines of the boat, thought it was an improvement, so I decided to take the next step. Found some dark gray flake vinyl (totally luck but a great match BTW) and started with that, had planned on doing a white lower and thought maybe leaving half chrome isn't too bad... Kind of matches that ugly FAE I have back there. So here is rhe poll... Gray top with white to match the lines or gray top with chrome to match the FAE and other random hardware.

N3 Boatworks had done this on a boat I saw back in February. They color matched the top as well as the bottom colors. I recall liking it quite a bit. I voted on the chrome on bottom as I like the look of stainless steel. I think either way is an improvement. You can't see much with the swim platform installed anyway.

Like the top (white) better but agree both an upgrade, nice work!

Got a before shot? I'm thinking keep the white at the bottom, goes with your color matching scheme better than partial match.

Little update.... Got the top half completed, unfortunately, shop was out of white (of all colors) so it's gray flake over chrome for now. Already a huge improvement, thought i' d share

Let's see a picture of your whole boat. I think you might have the same gel coat as me. What model and year?

Very pretty!

Gel coat schemes are fairly close.

I think I actually prefer yours... Liking the gray above the rub rail. I didn't have much say buying used, but they are both great looking boats IMO

Would love to know how this holds up over time.
