OCP.....it's an aethetics thing.
I'm just as bad, but in my own way. I get pissed if I can see a speck of corrosion....but paint damage doesn't bug me much...I consider those "battle scars", and leave them as is for the world to see.
Now...keeping my black/silver motif going....that is hard. The blue spindles on my eggbeaters have grown on me though...the one spot that's not in line with the rest of the bike...it's a nice finishing touch...that one thing out of place to make it stand out.
...I still need to get some Chorus calipers though....that black 105 is a little bland for this machine.
