Black housings, or clear?

I'm looking into doing some headlights/HID's sometime soon, since the stockers yellow too fast, but I can't decide black housing, or the clear ones. Search for them on ebay. There are a few pics of them installed on some cars on dsmtalk, but I'm still trying to picture them. Keep in mind my car is also all black/black wheels. Any ideas? I'm still deciding on what HID kit to get, but I know it will be in the 6000/6500k series.

Black. Chrome looks tacky.

I have a few pictures of my old black projectors installed on my 2g. Let me know if you want me to post up a pic.

I know what they look like on the 2g's. But, I was looking for the 1g pics. there's a guy with them on his red car. I'm still deciding if I like them. I'll post pics in a few.

Yea, I know. I was talking to the guy who would post pics of them on a 2g. I don't own a 2g, so I can't say I really care. I wanted pics of them on a BLACK 1g, since I'm thrown off by that "white border" on the corner lense, and that may stick out like a soar thumb on an all black car.

Hey I didn't know they made black housing ones, I like those better than the chrome. What brand of HIDs you going with? Maybe I'll beat ya to it ;-)

I'll be picking up a set of those shortly. I have a black 1g, so I'll be sure to get some pics as soon as I get them in,
