68 Camaro billet hinges--anodized or bare?

[tumper93]

Should I spend the extra $75 to have them clear anodized or is it a waste of money? I live in central NC and would hate for these things to get white and powdery and pit the aluminum finish. The other reason I ask is I once had a set of billet aluminum pulleys that weren't anodized or cleared and they did just that and looked horrific in a few years. I want to order these asap so I would appreciate any tips. I haven't seen any black anodized on camaros so I am not sure how they would look so....
