if you are going to do projectors then just do your black headlights yourself! i did my own and i am getting ready to do a set for another member for $50! it takes alot of time to do, but you still have the oem light output and it's cheaper! just my two cents!

from what i read here in this forum,
the blackout headlight housing are aftermarket poor quality made in taiwan sh!t, give very poor illuminiation on road, and the craftmanship is also very poor, just for show and look

OEM headlight still the best.

It's really easy to make your own for little cost and the light output is the same as OEM. Trust me, I've had my headlights and foglights apart several times with no problems.

I had a set of black hedlights before and yes they did suck as far as light output. I cracked one of them so i went back to the stocks. I just want the blak ones for the casing so i can put projectors in them. OEM light output is good but like i stated before i need more light at night. HIDs are good but the added benefit of projectors will make it better. maybe some of you guys have your old black headlights that you used but then changed.
