Splash guards or clear bra for black vert?

I talked with my dealer today about splash guards and clear bra. He said that the clear bra would show to much on black. Said if it was a light color it wouldn't show as much. I looked at the black pickups on the lot and the clear does really show. Also said they have never sold a clear bra kit for a Camaro. But sold a lot of splash guards. So I am leaning towards black splash guards.
Does anyone have a clear bra on a black camaro or splash guards that can post a photo?

I have a SIM vert that I have added the splash guards too. it seems to help with the amount of stuff kicked up onto the side of the car so those are worth it for me.

I am researching getting a clear bra now and talking to the installer they can end the bra at seams already on the vehicle so it would really not be too noticable if at all. basically I am looking at covering the front fascia/bumper up to the hood/fascia line.

Splash guards on my black Camaro are well worth it and don't harm the look. I'd recommend them to help protect the paint and limit the splash of dirt/debris. I think the dirt I used to have on the sides of the car was much worse than the mod of adding the splash guards.

A coworker has the 3M clear bra on his black Maserati and you can't even see it's there. If you want to spend the money, I'd recommend it. I don't know what it costs, but haven't cared enough to look for it.
