Guys, need some help with headlight retrofit, black or chrome?

http://www.protuninglab.com/20122014f30.html

I am trying to get a set but cannot decide on black or chrome to order. I have been reading another thread with a lively discussion on these headlights, but I think most ppl got the chrome version.... so if i may (sorry for being a newbie on this) as for some opinions:

1) Black or chrome

2) Most importantly... for the folks that have it, what do you guys think? is the quality good, durable, etc?

3) Can I put HID in the projector housing.. I know it is H7 and I *CAN* put HID in it. But I want it to look clean and I very much prefer not to blind the person in front of me (or oncoming traffic)

THank you for your help

What color is your car? If its dark, I wouldn't even look at the chrome.

I prefer something that looks stock, but I am pretty much out of luck for retrofitting these lights so I guess at this point I am looking for nicest looking

Thank you for the quick response...

Do you still have the stock grill with chrome? The silver whiskers on your fogs? Silver wheels? If so, I'd say chrome on your car.
