To paint or not to paint inside fenders? Options

What is correct inside the fenders?

Paint with the same color of the car?

I have seen so many 914´s with black material in the fenders.

Mine actually has the black material...however, I am considering removing the black material and repainting the wheel wells the color of the car...Light Ivory.

If painted...is there a material to spray over the paint to protect it against rock and/or debriss picked up by the tires?

Per my email above, I snapped this pic of the front right wheel well. I've (painstakingly) scraped off the original stone guard with a putty knife and heat gun. The car was only Ravenna green once so the wheel wells were never repainted. As you can see, the factory sprayed the stone guard over what appears to to me to be bare metal and then sprayed the color over the stone guard. Unfortunately Wurth Canada only sells the stoneguard in white or black. I bought two containers of black for when the time comes (I will prime and paint over it), but might order white instead to be closer to the beige and so chipped paint is less noticeable.
