That's impressive looking. Plastics can be tricky.

You could paint them with some red Fusion plastic spray paint.

My buddy Danny shot them I will ask him how much he did me a favor.

He is a paint man by trade and these are smooth and have three stage primer paint and clear they look great I hate to put em on for fear of scratching them

Just use an 8 and you won't scratch them.

They look good!!

John,
Get rid of the plastic parts and do what I did!
Use all stainless steel parts for nice look and can be removed any time you wish!

This pic shows the old plastic push-in's with the SS replacement parts. I put an extra SS washer with them:

Don't recall exactly, although, just get a SS Oval Head Screw that screws tightly into the yellow drywall anchors and fits flush with the 1/4" finishing washers. Probably an 8-32 or 10-24?
The large SS washer is a small-hole SS Fender Washer.

You might also find these screws and washers in chrome. My local ACE Hardware Store has a small selection of the chrome stuff! They are really pricey!!!
