I have a question, from what I've seen, Ul'dah grand company offers accuracy on their gear at 50 and Gridania offers crit. Should I factor this into deciding which grand company to choose or should I not worry about that because I wont really be using that gear once I start getting drops from end game dungeons?

Basically should I let the stats affect the grand company I choose from or should I just go for aesthetics?

As it is now, GC will offer nice base-gear at all levels, absolutely on par with much other gear. The dungeon-drops however, seem to be just slightly better.
When Raid-gear, AF+1 and such factor in, GC-gear in comparison will most likely be for pure aesthetics.
I'd say go with your/your FC's company of choice!
