Well the black may appear better because the color hides my horrendous photoshoppery. If I had a black car there wouldn’t be a question. But the sucker is green! Talk about an impossible color to work with

.
What if I color-matched the housing to the green?
I suppose if I did opt for these dual look head lamps, I should go with the black so that I can paint it any color to suit. If I went with chrome, painting over that could be a problem.
No doubt the optics are junk. They would be used as donor bodies for bixenon projectors.
I ran ecode lights (
as seen here), with 90/130's no less....hehehe. Definitely an improvement, but not good enough; gotta have that HID

The main goal of the exercise was to determine if the dual-lamp style looked good on W124's. I don’t think its toooo bad.
