Well if you think about it, majority of all OEM headlights are usually flat black or chrome inside so its pretty plain jane to me. And then there are cars like the C6 Corvette and the 1st gen Honda Fit who's housing patches the paint color of their car. But personally I think it only looks cool when the car is not Black, like a white car with white housing, its totally unique. But black on black just doesnt stand out to me. If you offset it with some contrast like Gunmetal, Hyper Black or maybe even a dark clear coat to make them black chrome like the JDM Vertex Edition headlights then it would truly be unique.

I'm one of those REALLY finicky guys who really pays close attention to details when I build my show cars.

 

Jun_Y you should post some pics of your car so when can have a taste.

 

I'm debating between Gunmetal and Hyper Black

 

Nothing's wrong with them. They are still on the car. I just want to do something else now hahah. The headlight housing on my old headlights are flat black right now.

 

Hehehe. My current project vehicle is still in the works and not even close to show ready, but its coming along. I'll start a thread some time soon with some teaser pics.

flame suit ON!

 

Glossy looks pretty good... but ou can't go wrong with the sportdesign color either..

 

wanna sell your OLD headlights to me?

 

Update...

I went to autozone and saw a can of paint I liked. It's called Charcoal Metallic. It's a darker charcoal color and it has a little bit of flakes in it. I am in the process of painting them now I will post pictures later tonight.

 

Here are the housing all painted. I also cleared the turn signal while I was at it. I think they turned out pretty good. What you guys think?

 

they look better than those murdered out ones u selling i like them

 

haha henace why I was going a different route with my car. I liked them but I see murdered/blacked out so much now I wanna be different oh yea heres another update pic.

 

hehehe stop buying headlights and buy a decent camera lol

 

haha I have a great camera but it was pretty cold outside and I was shaking hahah

 

I like these better. It gives some good contrast between the black and charcoal gray.

 

Yea I went that route with the color after Jun Y gave his input and also the fact that everyone goes w/ black
