Default What Headlights? HELP Please

Here is the site of the models i can get.
http://www.specdtuning.com/9900.html

The color I have is called Iced Teal Pearl, and i too have a sedan.

There are either Black or Chrome projectors, and i can;t seem to choose which one i should get.

This video (forward to near the end) shows the lights installed in black on my car.

HELP!

Thanks in Advance

**Apart from these, i could also get projectors that look and appear to be like stock (just a bit tinted)

Should have posted this in the Appearance forum. If it were me I wouldn't put that garbage on my car. Do a retrofit instead.

OP, you're going to have to go with your own favorite here. Even if you're feeling tied right now on the color choice, you'll have to figure it out on your own if you want to end up with a car you'll ever be happy with.

Build it for yourself, not others.

Word, http://www.theretrofitsource.com/ is the place to go for all your retrofitting needs. Paint the inside of the housings black while you're at it too.

What you want is called spray paint.

DIY headlights. There's directions all over the place or you could buy them premade on eBay.

Or you could get what he wants and buy CTR lights, which is what the DIY lights are meant to look like, but don't really look quite like. I have CTR lights, but my car is a '98 so it has the different front end.

Don't rush into modifying your car. You'll save yourself a lot of money by slowing down a little. I have made zero threads asking what parts are so I could put them on my car. If you read up you'll figure it out and figure out what parts you do and DO NOT want on your car.

I'm not really rushing into it. Honestly, this car has been in my family since 1999

I'm sorry for asking again, but do you think these jdm style headlights would give a blacked look like the link i showed?

Sorry for bothering you again

Yes, but you could very well find something similar for cheaper on eBay.
