IMO the white in the headlight itself doesn't contrast enough with the actual headlight reflector so it visually dulls out the entire headlight assembly. When I fabricated H4 Maxima Headlights using Corolla headlight reflectors I tried white, aluminum, gloss black and black. I went ahead and stuck with flat black. It makes the reflector look more jewel-like.
I'm sure if you started a poll the majority will prefer black over white. It' very unique though; I haven't seen anyone roll around with white in the headlights before. My $.02

Are the AE headlights just cosmetic or do you get any other benefit like brighter bulb options etc? Just curious.
