It's like when people get their whole car painted and don't understand that things like chrome bumper strips, molding, etc shouldn't be color matched. The end product looks so cheap because they just had everything painted the same color. Again just my opinion....good luck.


Black and black cherry are two different colors in daylight. My car is pretty much all color matched at the moment -- the headlights are just really distracting in their current color. I was thinking black housings and black cherry shrouds would add *some* contrast in high light situations.
