Has Anyone Taken The Plunge Yet With The Black Projectors?

If so post some pics...I'm thinking of getting them but I still haven't seen anyone with them.

Here's the link to them:

Ahh shiet...I think Tery has them on his ride bro...I know SOMEBODY on here bought them, it's in that Black projector thread, but I think Tery photoshopped them onto his car, not sure I know somebody bought them thats all I know...

Very hot.. I just dont have that much money to spend on headlights...

stock ones with h7 hid bulbs work for me

why would u want some black projectors? your car is black. u need some contrast up in there. terry got the chrome projectors. even tho a lot of peeps said they looked like cheese graters(incl. myself) they looked pretty good on his ride. made it look like a newer car. but black on black on black is a little redundant dont yall think?

sorta, unless you are going for that black out look. personally i think it would look sick on his car with black headlights. im planning on doing pretty much the same things things he has done.

John 99CLK430

Did you see the responses Tery got when he photoshoped the Black Projectors on his black/black ride?...

Imagine the reaction you'd get when their on in broad daylight.

krayzie_e99

ya so thats why he went with the chrome ones rite?.....

doramon

i ordered it...still awaiting for it...will post pics when installed...i got those black projectors for my black car....sort of goin for the black out look

Man...if i had a black clk, i would hands down tint it, throw on black rims and black headlights. I can't imagine the chrome headlights looking better than the black ones on a black car. I just wanna see someone with a silver car w/ the black lights...

DO IT CLK FAN!!

Those were my thoughts also because I haven't seen them on a black car ...just that white car and it looks good on white but I don't know if it will wash out the front of my car because of the lack of contrast.

What I would really like is the ones that are made for the E class that are not black but have a mix of chrome and black and looks tasteful rather than cheesy like cheese greaters.

ya i wanna throw em on my silver CLK....but im not a big fan of the cheesgreaters nor the price for those cheaply made headlights....so if nethin ill wait for a drastic price drop or a new style of black projectors ta come out.....till then i gues im fine wit the stock xenons :-/

i think they would look good - if u throw them on CLKFAN and they look good, i am jockin

John 99CLK430

Well here is Tery's ride with the photoshoped Lights, so you can rate yourself either chrome or black, but keep in mind they are photoshoped....not actually on the car and I'm sure would look different not just taken off the internet....



and here is one of them on the CLK!

deyainrdy4ds

no offense to tery or whoeva did that photoshop job...but i really dont think thats b a good photoshop representation of wut the headlites wud really look like......IF it was....theres no way id eva do it..esp on that blue color lol

ckanderson

Eh.. with the black car photo i'd vote chrome it looks allot better

John 99CLK430

Did you guys look at the second picture below his ride? Their actually on somebodys car....

A quick edit, I did not do the photoshop if you guys were wondering, I got those pics straight out of the Black projector thread.

krayzie_e99

those look pretty good, and cheap! its a shame they dont make em cheap for our 208s. check out terry's ride, he got the chrome cheese graters but they look pretty good,imo. they have grown on me. i think those would go along really good to match your chrome lip. but if your already decided to get teh black ones, go for it. id just thought there be too much black up front. anyhow, whatever u do post some pix.

Here are a few shot of black cars with black projectors.

That's not working out for me... but to each their own.

ooooh, ya theres just something not right with the black progectors on a black car. Was personally thinking about putting them on mine, but now that i've seen what it loos like, not a fan at all. Chrome looks so much better and alot classier. black just looks trashy and ruins the look of the sexy front end.

bm1984

they look horrible on that e class

John 99CLK430

Man you guys are tough...

does he have the chrome ones and the black projectors installed on the same car? i think the black ones look clean on the white car same with the chrome ones. yea im starting to thing if u put the black projectors on a black car it wont look to good either. so i think i might go with some chrome ones. but everything else on my ride is going to be blacked out.

John 99CLK430

Yeah that guy has Chrome and Black projectors, kinda looks pretty dope, but I still don't think Black projectors would look THAT bad on the CLK, I think it just depends on how it's setup to make it look right, you know?
