black on black housing?

Hi acurazine, this is my first post here. I JUST bought a black/black 1998 3.0. I've been looking at the pictures here and I don't think I've seen too many CL's with black headlight housing or black bumper light housing. I was thinking about doing both...

Is there a reason why not many people go for this mod? does it look bad?

Obviously you haven't searched because a bunch of people have done this mod.

Personally I don't think blackhousings on a black CL look very good cuz it makes them look like raccoon eyes. But I do love my smoked corners I'm one of the few members on here that has them

It's not an impossible mod to accomplish for sure, it's just risky.

BlackAck has smoked corners, see the pics above. I don't know if anyone installed the eBay black housings, the pics above is a Photoshop if I remember correctly.

yep, they're photoshopped. but they're not badly priced right now, under $200 before shipping.

i wouldnt buy em. i think the corner piece is gross. plus its a hell of a lot cheaper to do it yourself. and you will get to spend some time with your car haha.

I have the smoke turn signals, I got mine off ebay and they definitely make the car look slick.
