Which light covers to get?

Really can use your help guys/gals, I have a style dilema....

Which KC light covers would go BEST with my truck?





As you can see I have the whole "blacked out" look going on, keep in mind, what ever we choose I might take off the FD plate if the front looks too busy.


Here are my choices, anyone good with photoshop? Opinions needed!

stone guard-


Black with white letters hard cover-




or

white with black letters hard cover-

Hey I like your Tag on the front .. I own a fire equipment and vent hood cleaning company in Mississippi .. ( B&R Fire Protection ) I thought about getting the flame tag with our logo on it..

I like the black light covers with whit letters.. The white ones will stain over time..

Get the stone guard, that way the lights can be turned on without having to get out and take off the covers...

x2, especially on what MTP said...you don't want to have to get out and take off four light covers every time you want them on.

Definately go with the stone guards. BTW are your heads painted or are they aftermarket/Harley/FX2?

Before this thread dies, I wanted to ask you if your fog light output decreased as a result of the tinting? Or did you just paint the non-reflective parts? I want to do mine but I actually use my fog lights all the time.

I had to make this decision on my Jeep a while back. I went with the stone guards. You can turn them on whenever and not have to worry about the covers.

I used the baking method on the fog lights and just painted the top and bottom and not the reflector. It came out great and the output was not effected, I use my fogs everyday as well and they are even brighter now since ive replaced the bulbs with silverstars.
