    Kidneys:Black or chrome.

    I have a set of black plastic(not painted) and another of Chrome Kidneys and I can't decide whether I like the blacks or chromes better. Just wanted to get some input.

    Here are the Pictures of both.

          i feel it really depends on the car color... for your dark color i say stick with chrome, but on my red i really preferred the black

              I say chrome, otherwise your lights stand out a bit too much. your car is also pretty dark already.

                  They both look good. Just keep them both and alternate them whenever you feel like it. That is what I do.

                        hmmm I was expecting an overwhelming bias towards black. I think I am gonna run chromies for now.

                            Like a few people said, it depends on the color of the car. I always liked the chrome look better but lately the black look has grown on me.

                              I think black looks better on your car imo.
