All Blacked Out vs. Black with silver
Alright, I really just cannot decide between the two at all...I really like the all blacked out look with black headlight housings and blacked out sidemarkers but I was also leaning towards just clearing the H.I.D's leaving them silver and getting some clear bumper lights, in your opinion which looks better? Oh yeah, some pics would be nice.

Well I already have my side markers smoked, so I guess nothing left to do but clear the H.I.D.'s and then paint the housing black, probably do that sometime this weekend, I am also thinking about painting the grill flat black, but leaving the Nissan sign like most people do.

The Canadian Ann. Ed. did not get the body kit, it was installed when the cars hit the ports in the states. I have looked into and have all the part numbers for the kit, but it us a bit pricey to do now. They got all the other available options, though.

i like eveything to match.
for a dark car, mix some black paint in with clear coat and spray all the lenses. during the day it looks smoked, but with your lights on you can't tell any difference. just don't put too much black in and only use one or too coats.

Black looks sick and so does clear. I think it depends on the car and the owner. In my opinion its all about the overall appearance of the car. Black if you want an aggressive look or clear if you want a sharp sporty look.
