I'd go with the black housing since it's more noticeably not stock.

Yea, I have those healdights in chrome. If you decide to buy them make sure you seal them up before you put them in, so it wont get fogged up in there. Lighting is no where near what stock is, its a lot less light than stock, but then again it looks A LOT better than stock. Check out "my ride" and you can see it on my car with the halo's on and its beam output.

LOL! That chop is awesome!
I would sayget some sort of black projectors. The silver tyc prjector is 'brushed' aluminum and won't match the rest of your car. And chrome tycs look tacky on a SSM imo.
Black projectors will look great with your euro grill. Get either TYC or the halo version. The halo version looks more lined-up (all the lenses are same size) and less 'busy' looking than the TYCs.
I have a pair of halo prjectors on my way. I'm not planning on wasting my car's electric on that halo though. I can do without it on.

Rep Power: 0 I could not see **** out of my Angel Eye black housing projectors for a few months. Then a bulb burnt out and I bought some Philips Blue Vision bulbs, put them in the projectors and aimed the projectors, you have to try and aim them a lot higher, now I can see as far if not farther than stock. I'll get some pics up if I go anywhere tonight.
