Nope, just understand they are the cage to have on a nice classic style bike. The stainless ones actually aren't that expensive.

Update-
So as suggested, I’ve changed the bar tape to black and changed the seat post to chrome. Much improvement! Next are the Saddle and the pedals! Thanks all for the help!
Also ordered the King Iris Bottle Cages!
