Part of the hinges down under the fender were hidden from the factory spray guns and did not get painted. Same deal with trunk torsion bars, etc. Therefore painting entire loose hinges off the car in body color won't look right. They should be painted on the car or as though they were on the car.

If it is a nice driver or over-restored show car just paint them completely and don't worry about what others say. If it is a 100% trailer queen paint them as said above.
