I think it looks OK actually. 
Why have red like everyone else - it's just what we have become accustomed too. If blue had been the default colour for this we would have been used to that too. 
I'd like to see pictures in daylight without the flash though to get a truer idea of what they look like.

I like the look very much. I just painted mine red and am not convinced that it fits with silver gray metallic. I have actually been considering repainting in blue to get a more subtle effect so this is helpful.
