Hey guys,
This is related to my first post. Can anyone and everyone post pics of their chrome housing and black housing headlights! Trying to decide b/t the two on a Brilliant Black Car. I have an aluminum RS4 Grill and a Hofele Bumper.
Thanks to ALL!!!

Please don't do chrome. If you are thinking of changing it from black, then do brushed aluminum. That would look pretty sick.
EDIT: Misread, thought you were talking about mirror housings.

Here are a few pics of my old headlights with a optic black grill. I ended up switching to Euro-Spec Xenon with a DTM Grill with chrome surround.

Wow that actually looks real sick, I never thought about only painting part of the housing. To reiterate, I haven't painted my housings at all yet. I will be CC'ing the headlights and want to know if I should keep them chrome/silver (stock) or go with a matte/flat black finish.

Do you have Xenons or Halogens?

Halogens I would atleast paint the front piece black and CC> At least you will still have a mixture of black and chrome contrast to go with the rest of the car.
