Which housing would you pick?

I'm having trouble deciding on the color of the housing to get. I have a PG with black roof overlay, flat black grill (which can be redone to match the housings). Recently just took off the headlight overlays in preparation for a few things, including having the housing painted.

Which color would you go with? Flat black (ebony black), BO, or black chrome?

Thanks guys.

So Elite apparently likes black *****.

I would go with matte black for the housing. That is exactly what I was about to do until the CF option presented itself.

I think if your any color other than BO it'd look good with a flat black housing, us BO drivers probably need to stick with BO so it matches up good.

I'm planning on painting my housing over the winter, and I'm having the same problem deciding what color to get? Does anyone here have pics of a PG with the headlight housings painted?

different colors looks bad to me. thats why i hate when people do glossy roof overlays with flat black rear valence. i say pick 1 black especially since your car is another color and stick with it. since your roof is the hardest to change, do the grill and lights bo.

I've eliminated black chrome. Choosing between BO and flat black. BO slightly ahead because it's shiny!
