Opinions on blacking out headlights and LEDs?
I'm planning on opening my 06 Headlights to install some LEDs.

Question 1: Do I go iron-man style or along the clearance strip?

Question 2: Should I black them out while I'm at it?

I have a black coupe and haven't seen any with blacked out headlights that "wowed" me.

I kinda like the contrast of silver on black, but if anyone has pics of blacked out headlights on a black coupe that turned out well, please post them (and if it's flat or gloss black).

I like the contrast of the silver too. Blacked out grille and headlights on a black car is too much black IMO. Unless you're into that look...

This one looks pretty good, can't tell if they're painted or overlays:
