But I'm not so sure I like that black nose, what is the general feeling

Should my <-> company paint (Change out) the black nose for a more
conventional gray?

(The company bought some gray nose parts last year. Lucky...)

Thoughts?

::Thinks::  For crying out loud, it's Lego!  Build what you want!  Build it
with grey ones.  If you don't like it, change it back.  Have you paid for
it?  Yes?  Well, it's yours now.  Go crazy.  Have some FUN!

Sorry, did I think that out loud?

Anyway, it's a diesel, so it'll look ugly whichever one you use.  :-)
