If you're not changing anything else on your exterior, I'd go chrome. Otherwise, black.

There's a bump in the projectors, usually, so it doesn't fit quite right. A little bit of time with a heat gun, and they should be alright.

^Minus the fogs, ventshades, and clear corners. Yeah. :lol:

I so go with the Chrome, they look really good on red. That only if you keep your car mostly stock too like zerochad said.

I think red and black look sooooo good together. The chrome version looks sort of like a cluster fuck inside the lamp. Too busy. The black helps tame the look by cutting back on all the reflective surfaces IMO.

Yeah, these aren't my favorite lamps either. Not to mention that the output isn't the best in the world either.

These are the Depo version without a bubble, the eyelids will fit perfectly fine on the Depo and MPX versions (with or without bubble). I was surprised at how nice they looked on his car being chrome and all. His name is Stefan he's from CT. I took those shots of his car at a local show over the summer, I can look to see if I have more.

I think chrome would look better in your car's current status. Would look better with some black wheels or something.

my car is dark and i wanted to keep a dark theme going on it. SOOO, I went with the black. I think it looks subdued but makes an ominous statement about the car. however, if the car had been a bright color such as red or cinnamon I would go with the chrome. just my 2 cents.

Ok I know it is a old ass bump but how do you get your black to have such a gloss I have a hard enough time just keeping mine clean
