Light Gray Bottom? Bad idea?

[Texasmobama1369]

I am ready to order an Eyra and the color combo I have seen that I like best has the light gray boot, or bottom. I think a black boot on this color combo would not look nearly as good.  I will be fishing Fork and other very stumpy lakes and am wondering if the logs and stumps will mark up the light gray bottom more than if I went with black? It looks like the light gray is almost more like a flat while the black is more shiny which might show marks differently. At least that’s how the pictures look. Those of you who have had some time with the Light gray bottoms, would you do it again?  Anyone with thought feel free to chime in.

Thanks in advance.

I had a black truck and hated it because it showed every blemish so I stick with white or silver on trucks but ordered my 21 Eyra with black boot and to me it shows blemish’s less than my previous 2 white bottom boats and is easier to correct/hide them when they happen. I guess because sun doesn’t reflect directly on bottom of boat and it is shadowed it’s not as visible as sun shining on truck. Just my 2 cents.
