I have an L7 with front Fenda extenda and hugger but don't often go out if it looks like rain, I will use fugbox instead ( nice to have the choice ) - I keep black plastic bits and wheel rims well waxed with proper black trim wax with black pigment, other stuff gets AutoGlym wax. The dirt is easy to get off.

Original mudguards are pants, maybe they didn't expect a naked bike to be ridden much in wet weather, I was more worried about stones hitting radiator which is why I had an extender as well as a radiator guard (home made from aluminium diamond mesh sprayed matt black, so pretty much invisible).
