I think fenders are a great boon to bicycle riding. You can run errands in iffy weather, or get out after a storm when the roads are wet, but it’s not raining. I feel like my fenders opened up a lot of riding days, even in California. I do “take a bet on the weather,” on my commute sometimes, because I don’t lose too much is it does rain. I’ll be damp, but not muddy and gross. I ride in my work clothes, and I wouldn’t without fenders.
As for color, silver, or black, it depends on the bike. I painted my fenders green to match the Quickbeam, I had aluminum fenders on a black bike, and I just put shiny steel fenders on my shiny green “nice” bike. The new orange bike will probably get black fenders if I can find them or paint them.
