I've never seen an MX-3 sporting the chrome halo projectors. everyone who's done the conversion have used the black housings instead. is there a reason for this? i was thinking that it was because it doesn't line up perfectly to our front anyway, so that's why black is preferred so it's not as noticeable. ?
i plan to get these ones above on ebay if this is the case. no yellow blinkers on the very sides is a good thing right? i noticed that ppl don't get ones with yellow side blinkers or more than 3 lights inside either. there was one guy on cardomain that said that the projectors with the two extra small lights on the sides (for a total of four i think) were a biatch to install. wouldn't they be the same dimesnions as the three-light ones?? let me know. thanks
Chrome Civic Projectors?

probably because you have to cut part of it, so the chrome isnt really chrome, is like a paint type stuff that if you cut will flake off, where the black if it peels slightly or anything you can just sand it down and repaint

Here are some pics of the Chrome lights on my car.
Eventually I will be painting the housing blue to match the car, like I did with the taillights. I like them as they are to though.
