I would say roose and samco are up the for quality. Sfs are good to. Roose I would say offer the most choice, not all is listed in there website. I asked for a gold or tan colour, they have put me a sample in the post. Can't knock that.

I'd go for a bit of colour just to contrast with everything else in the bay. Black is just too boring IMO but it's up to the individual at the end of the day.

I have blue in my focus but had black on my Saff and think they looked better so might be changing mine soon, once the other jobs are done
