Go with the orange reflector-ed ones. They look stock, and when the projectors are in, you won't be able to tell the difference too much.

All said and done, total cost is roughly $1,100. Definitely spendy and for most people not worth the cost. I have a definite appreciation for good lighting as I do a ton of country and nighttime driving in a day. When I leave it's dark out and when I get home it's dark out. Roughly 120 miles a day.

you know what would look sick...if someone retrofitted some bmw halo lights around the headlight. I think it would look sick. I vote black headlights with the orange reflector.

I have seen the BMW halo lights in cars, suvs and trucks other than bmws and they don't look right. When they're installed the look very trashy on other vehicles for some reason.

I haven't ever seen the black headlights on my style truck. Black with a chrome bumper, chrome grill surround and billet grill. I just don't think black headlights would look good on mine. Though I really do like black the best.
