Thanks !
The bad thing about silver paint is that it shows details such as the corrogation in the material that you are using. Also, if you use spray paint, the paint will tend to have a visible pattern with metallic colors. ( So use a good quality paint and a criss-cross pattern. )
With either color ( but especially silver ) I would suggest maybe adding a small black edge to the bottom lip and curling it under.
You can use black trim pieces that are usually sold for screens at home improvement stores ... or just use some good quality electrical tape if you have a steady hand. If you look at wheel wells on cars, the metal does not end in a sharp edge, but rather has a rounded edge that tucks into the wheel well.
If you go with black, you will find that matte black hides imperfections, as well as makes the piece look professional and not 'cheap' looking.
( Just my suggestion )
