depends on the rest of the car. silver if it's standard w/ few mods and silver/chrome wheels. If u have black wheels or any black mods, black is cool

I have the projectors with chrome background on my silver CLK. The rest of the car has chrome accents too.

My niece has the projectors with black background on her silver CLK. Her car has black accents.

Depends on what direction you plan on going with the car. If you're leaving everything else stock, then I would go with the chrome housing. Also check www.neweggmall.com. They have some good prices on the headlights.

You could use the exact same bulbs that are in your current headlights "H7" I believe. OR......you could HID them like I did for 65 bucks and have the best of both worlds NICE LOOKING and BRIGHT!!
