well, the chrome would probly be nice on your car...but its gonna be harder to find since its not really out yet as far as i know (although you might be able to find a pair on eBay or something). given that, i'd say silver would be best--unless you like the whole 'smoked-lights-on-silver-car' type of scheme

i have an EBP coupe and i think i wanna get black when i get those

i would only recommend the black ones to cars that are planning to have black or already have black. it fits very well with nighthawk black pearl color. it makes it seem as if the lights were part of the car!

I'm buying the black ones eventually, but I have a black Civic. I'd get the silver if I were you.

Grey has a spectacular aura aboutGrey has a spectacular aura about
I reccomend getting the black ones and taking them apart and painting them SSM. The brushed silver color will mis-match with our Satin Silver Metallic Color. That's what I'm doing, !@#$. ::in the voice of the barber from Coming to America:: [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

I want to go with the silver, but the color match is a concern to me, how close is it?
Black I would like, but with the dark housing it would look like blackouts, BUT it seems to be the trend in OEM housing of other car models these days, S2000, Rustangs, Impala's as a few examples....
Now to throw on a RS grill (removing the RS emblem) between the 3 dark spots on the front end I think it would look real Mean[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]
anyone have a pic with a silver or white civic with the black projectors online to see?

Thanks guys!

I'd deffinately go with chrome...yeah, you may think they look like stock from a distance, but the light output pattern will be completely different, which will really set them apart...I think there is a reason the stock lights are chrome...it's cause it looks really damn cool on a silver car!
