Cefiro head lights

Just trying to decide between chrome and smoked ones for my car. It's deep evergreen with chrome S5 grill and chrome wheels. Anyone have pics of either cefiros on a green or black car? Please post them here. Thanks.

well since you have a chrome grill, i think the chrome cefiros would look nice, and plus...seems like too many people have the smoked cefiros and the chromes are somewhat of a rarity.

first off, the H4 bulb produces a much better beam pattern than the 9004; so if aimed properly the cefiros give much greater visibility than the stock housings

i bought my OEM ones from mojomax and there are no fogging issues, they are sealed very well

I heard about these fogging issues. I have the smoked ones. I think I am going to re-seal either way them just to be on the safe side.
