As far as i am concerned the colour of the boxes/cable is not an issue as they will get painted the next time the house is regardless of what colour they are ,my issue with that install would be the routing .If the box had to go in that position then it would have been neater to run the cable along the roof line and then down the left side of the window tight against the concrete jamb ,2" below the box and then looped up into the box ,not straight down the middle of a wall ,and a straight or horizontal run should be straight or horizontal ,not a little bit wiggly .As a window fitter i re-rout cables all the time and if i can be tad professional about a not very hard job ,then someone who does it for a living should be able to do it
