Yeah the chrome attracts fingerprints but despite that I really like it. Between the red and matte grey I have to say that I actually kind of like the chrome with matte grey combo more. In terms of combining the chrome with a matte piece, it's not a bad feel (not really that rough). I think it's good because the matte piece provides some grip to balance the chrome.
Put a coat of RainX on there. That should help with fingerprints.
