The black looks better, for sure. If the paint is a hassle, one idea is to get some heat shrink tube slightly larger than the OD of the brass fittings, cut it to length, and shrink it on there. Lots of colors if you want to get creative. If you cut it a little longer than the assembled space between the fittings (so it goes over some of the fitting too), it would help hold everything together without glue and even add some additional damping. And if you really want to lock things together, get an adhesive lined shrink tube.

Link below to one site. You'll need a heat gun to do it properly, but if you don't have one already you probably need one. :)
