i have a purple hb.. not by choice because i was in desperate need of a car at the time and it was the only thing i could find that was in my budget. but yes or no for black housing headlights?

 

probably lookz okay cuzz dark kolor........

 

I'd get the pale gunmetal ones from islandmotorsports.com, because the black looks washed out on DAP. It just blends too much.

I agree, you need something lighter to bring out the face of the car. The black housings would get lost in the color.

 

sweet thanks guys

 

yes looks good thats what i have ill get pics so you can see

 

sweet thanks man.. pics when you have time =]

 

dont feel bad about the color be different then the regular its a real nice color i've learned that

 

Mang, you need some pic taking skills .... your car looks BLACK.



That's my friend's hatch. I just like how the light color offsets the frontend.

well im not a profesional, you have any black housin one... my car is purple and it change between purple and black depending on light, the black gousin headlight makes the car look darker

 

yes i have two purple hatches daily and track...

 

Not a professional either. I'm a cook that knows how to use a camera and enhance photos on a computer

And your car doesn't change colors. It's always purple. It just depends on what the CAMERA sees. And no, black housings don't make a car look darker, it just makes your front end look washed out.

 

so my car "LOOKS BLACK" (in your on words) sometimes when its in dark places ppl always thinks its black and then they see it in the light and they're like oh its purple..

Trust me, I know. My girlfriend and I regularly detail two dap civics. I'm merely saying that in your picture, it looks black, and not because of the lighting. It's the camera, your use of said camera, and your car probably needs a compound, polish, and a glaze to bring the true color out.



The other dap we detail. This was the first detail, from the ground up (clay, compound, polish, glaze, wax).
