If I were to do that, I would put a grommet in the metal hole to mitigate the metal on plastic scraping (but that's just paranoid me).

I've got these plastic ones with zipties (I doubled-up just like you suggested) :

As you can see, it's pretty utilitarian. I may do what Christ mentioned, and paint them blackout (Mad Max) style, or find some black plastic sheets. This would hide the holes and make it so I don't have to clean the dust off. My hands get coal-black from brake dust whenever I put them on/take them off, and then I have to clean the plastic. Hiding the details would make them more blunt and "stealthy" at the same time.
