Should I blackout my housings with my retrofit projectors? Or no?

Well I got my projector kit in from microimage and I will be doing the install this weekend (hopefully). I was wondering what you guys think would look better, and I was hoping for a possibly Photoshop request of my car with the projectors in and with black housing and chrome housing. Should I black out my housings with the projectors? Or leave them chrome. The first picture is of camell's car with the housings blacked out. The 2nd pic is of camell's headlights before he painted the inside black.

Blacked out housing (also has eyelids, but i dont have those)






Stock housing with projector..






The blacked out housing matches camell's car perfectly and i could not see it any other way. However, I'm not sure if the blacked out housings will be too much for a white car? Leaving the housing stock is definately a safe bet and keeps it OEM looking; but could blacking out the housing achieve an even better look for the white car????? hmmmmm

Here's some pics of garm's white car with projectors, but he painted the outside transparent black. It gives you an idea of what I would want. However, I'd be painting the inside housing black like camell..












If any of you guys are good at photoshopping. Could you photoshop a blacked out headlight version with the projectors, and then a normal chrome headlight with the projector. Here's a pic you can work with. thanks






Here's some shots of the projectors for you guys to photoshop them in. I hope these pics will suffice..








thanks in advance!
