This is more of an opinion question than anything. I ordered my new foglights for my car (PIAA 1400) and they came today. I had ordered ones with a black housing and clear lense (see pic)


When they arrived today, I was sent these by accident:


The ones that I was sent are actually $20s more than the ones that I bought. They have an aluminum housing (as opposed to plastic composite) so they'll probably be more durable, and have an upgraded bulb. Obviously, they are better lights. However, I'm not too sure if I'm crazy about the chrome color. Do you guys think that would look gay :ghey:? How would it look against my black grill? Should I throw away this free upgrade and return them, or just keep it and learn to live with the chrome? What would you guys do?

 

upgraded bulb, if u REALLY do'nt like the black u could always paint it... but i like 'em... they are PIAA you can't be :ghey: with PIAA... i give it :thumbup:

 

thats what I was thinking too....I can always paint them if I don't like them. I don't know if I should look a gift horse in the mouth.

 

Yeah try them out, if you don't like them you can always paint the housing black

 

or sell 'em

 

I think I'm just gonna end up keeping them...after all, I did get a great deal on them. If I don't like the chrome, I'll just paint it...or I'll just have to deal with it.

 

Or u could get them powder coated the same color as ur car, but hell if u got them and they are 20 bucks more keep them. Thats what i would do.

 

I honestly think they'd be nicer black than the color of the car. Any idea how much it would cost for them to be powdercoated black? They're small, so it shouldn't be THAT much, right?

 

don't powder coat them. now THATS :ghey: if you put them behind the grill, you won't be able to see them.. light output will basically be the same but you can't really see them... "stealth"
