With or without boots?

I stripped my Stumpjumper forks down today, put them back together so I don't lose any bits but then realised I had left the boots off!
I think they look better without them. Any thoughts?

Boots look lame in my opinion. They serve a purpose though so I guess it's down to the intended usage.

If you are going to be hammering dusty trails then boots will help keep particles out. I imagine regular maintenance will also help, boots or not.

The bike looks great like that.
