Black headlights

Im in the process of blacking out my truck and all I left to do, is blackout the headlights. Any suggestions on a brand and a good place to purchase black headlights for 2005? I've considered doing them myself, but afraid I'll mess them up. When I google them, I see a lot on ebay, but not sure of their quality.

Black background and smoking the lens are two different things.

dont get your HL tinted or smoked, you wont be able to see. 100% agree with Raptor.

I bough the ones for my 05 from ebay for 100$ with the clear corners. They looked great, and fit well on the truck.

Don't forget to tear into your fog lamps and paint inside them to match because with darker headlamps they will stand out very awkwardly.
