thoughts on headlights...
just purchased my truck (white) and looking for a cleaner look as my stock headlights are oxidized etc...
what everyones thoughts and opinions on these? anyone have them?
chrome or black on white truck with chrome headlight surround/grill surround?
not a fan of the daytime running leds but like the look and find it to be nice and clean and 1 piece as well...

I can't say anything about quality, but to me they just look like they can't make up their mind about wether to be chrome or black. They just look ackward to me. But that's just my 2 cents, take it for what it's worth.
Lighter Paintjobs (i.e. Oxford White)= Chrome Headlamps
Darker Paintjobs (Black, Gunmetal Grey)= Smoked/Black Headlamps
Following the above combo seems to work pretty well for the few '07 F-150's my bro has. I'm thinking of getting these for my '98 Oxford White F-150:

currently m grill/light surround is chrome,so debating...
black grill and black housing headlights....
or chrome grill and chrome headlights...
unsure unsure... cause it might be too much chrome, but because its white it might work out...

SVT Lightning headlights are my favorites and these lights are two years older then my truck and still look brand new

One pieces are cool, but they wont fit like flush like an OEM fixture will

still stuck in the air though as to whether go chrome headlights / grill
or black headlights / grill...
keeping in mind my existing headlight / grill surround isn't painted white its chrome

the chrome ones in that style would always look better then black though... imo the seams are way to visible with black, where with chrome they would be more hidden.

In that link are the same ones I poseted above, but cheaper (I may have to get them once I get paid, hmmmm.) 2-piece fits better and if you hit something (like my dad hit a deer) I will only break either the side or the headlamp or both, but if you had a 1-piece it would break the whole thing. Plus, removing the sidelamps is required if you want to change grilles later on. A 1-piece means taking the whole thing out and that just a plain hassle. So, IMO, the 2-piece looks better, fits better, and also is easier to install and remove. Let us know,
