i would say chrome if you plan to go with clear corners, chrome wheels, etc. Black housing if ou are going to get a hood i.e.,SS hood, and paint it black(manta, hood scoop filler decal) go with smoked corners, tail lights, berger panel, and smoked out side markers

I'd give your bumper some TLC before new headlights.

I am with SparkyJJO on this one, the headlights look fine how they are. You really need to get the bumper taken care of and get a billet grille, with the back painted black. It will look 150 x's better than know. Just my opinion though.

i think you should add the dark halos...i got mine plus clear corners for 225, and quite a few people on this board have the same ones and luv em. either way it would look good tho

I was being sarcastic when I said "did you hit a deer" implying that it looks rough, didn't mean any offense. Your current lights look really nice, I don't think halos would pull it off quite as well. But it's your car, dude.
