Black projectors on a black car?
They seem too look great on white, silver, and red cars. But not sure how they look on black cars with a black grill. Have not seen too many examples. i would think in theory black projectors would be great with my all black theme.
Seems like i need that little bit of contrast up front. I cannot decide....
So ya sell me away from going with chrome ones
< -- should i smoke them myself? very light?

it's body color -- gloss black
I do keep my car super glossy at all times and the chrome lights I have go really well with it. I think if I had a chrome grill it would OK but not as good as it does with my black grill
I'm sorry for confusing you with your choice but it's always nice to see your options before you make a choice and I happen to really like mine
the black lights on black tends to wash away the front of the car....but it's a matter of taste and opinion and what you really like is what counts

Just thought you'd like another opinion. I don't have these lights but I figure if I ever do get them, I'd go with chrome. I personally like the way the chrome looks (looks closer to stock ??). For some reason the black halos just look weird to me. The black cheese grater ones for whatever reason look a little better than the black halos.

I actually Just ordered the same ones that CLK FAN has. I think they look a lot better then the black one's. Car looks a lot better and like freddyfunk said they look closer to stock so in my opinion a lot better

Do you guys think it would look good to have only a lorinser bumper in the front and the AMG side skirts/rear bumper? I was planing to do that but wasnt sure if it would look good! The car in the grey looks SICK tho!?
