Clear them, I don't think blacked out headlights would look good on gold.

Without a doubt.... clear them. I blacked mine out, knowing I could switch with Tatewaki's cleared one if I didn't like them blacked out. I ended up switching them almost immediatly, it looks like dark eyeballs on the car.. I thought it would look good on the silver TL I have but it didn't...

Blacked out headlight only look good o the black TLs

Blacked out headlights make a TL look like an Impala.

ur right




i think it wouldnt look right on a stock tl, but if u get a lip kit and slam it, then it might look good, but if u do it, dont paint all inside the corners, only around it, so that theres not too much black, plus when u do that, at night, ur bulbs will actually reflect off the chrome, otherwise it wont reflect because the background will be black

Paint them beige to match the car. I think that would look good and it would be original and unique.
