Help me decide on projector headlights...

I did a quick photochop. What do you guys think about the black housing headlights?






Compared to the chrome housing projectors?

I've done my research on these headlights and there doesnt seem to be an issue with the light output or HIDs melting the inside housing.

I'm just looking for opinions on the appearance of the black or chrome headlights.

Update. I went with the chrome projectors but I went with a different style than the one pictured above. These projectors look 10x better than my previous stock headlights and really updates the look of the car.
