Default To brown or not to brown?

Ive started browning the trim on my GPR and have one last big piece left. The nose cap. Should i brown that to or just go ahead and polish it and leave it in the white? Barrel and under rib will also be browned. This one i am stuck on and dont know what i should do here.

If it were me, I would match all metal parts.. but only you can decide what appeals to you. I am sure you will make the right choice, as if it pleases you.. its the right choice. Good luck with your rifle.

just browned it about 15 minutes ago and i think it will look good with the cherry stain. Just have the screws and wedge plates to brown.

Take a couple days for the browning to smooth out.
