That finish is called Black Chrome, its pretty difficult to work with but we're working on it.

Orb Rings, not halos

Yes, you can order just the Orbs, we only offer them in Pure White (5500K), we tend to stay away from colored LEDs because they don't handle the conditions within the headlights for a long period of time, so we highly recommend against using blue, red, or RGB lighting inside the headlights.

Here's a few more pics

Not sure if it helps but you may be able to use this for black chrome. I've used it before and it works great!

Not smaller, just different. We no longer use Superflux LEDs, they were just not reliable. We've been using a special kind of SMD LED with a lens, and they are very reliable and just as bright.

I think I've seen that before, not sure if I tried it. I'll look into it again

That is perfect. In Canada, we need day time running lights. How would you hook em up?

Do you ship to Canada? How much for the exact set up?
