Got any pics of black housing projectors on a 96-98 dark civic?

Only bright things on my car is the clear part of the tail lights, the headlights and the wheels. I like to mainly have bright wheels but keep everything a somewhat dark concept. The bright chrome headlights are just too much of attraction for the front so im going to blacken them out. I am going to try a few things for that damn reflector so it doesnt look cheap.

probably wouldn't look right on your car, tho.... I'm really hesitant on doing this, I still need to research HID more....

Thats with simular projectors on a black car.

TehJustin: where can I buy the lights on that of yours? The pastic on my lights is all scratched and its beyond repair so I suppose if Im to get new lights then your lights would be the best replacements.

I still think that these are the best hands down for 96-98 .....

Black chrome housing just tops the cake. No cheap painting of the chrome neccessary. No reflector or nothin. Nicely shaped and all. I would go with these over any projectors.

WHY SOOO MUCH MONEY ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

I see alot of stock oem lights which have not been tampered with that leak and condensate. I had to apply silicon around my factory lights before I even oppened them to take out the reflector just to stop it from leaking. I always make sure the rubber piece covering the bulb is tightly fitted around it so air cant find its way in.

my ctr's leaked and condensated h:

tyc isn't that bad a company. there's alot worse light manufatures.

I work with all sorts of makes and models of cars, and you'd be surprised how many different cars/trucks have leaking lights.

ctr's are good if you stay with stock headlamp bulbs.

Im probably going to go with the JDM EK 96-98 Civic Type-R headlamps. Black chrome and all in replace with my stock lights.

TheJustin is using CTR lights in that pic but, not the Type-R EK's from Japan right? His light doesnt have a black chrome look which is why I'm asking.
