I am takin my whole front end apart on Wednesday to fix up the regular wear and tear (and collision damage) my bumper has got, and to fix my yellow headlight, so I figure I might as well take both lights apart and do something nifty to them. Should I paint them black like the 97+ Eclipse lights, paint them body color, or leave them chrome/reflective/stock/whatever?

My brother has a '96 spyder eclipse (barcellona red, same color) and I painted the chrome to match the car. It kinda looks black far off, but really looks good when you get pretty close to it. I'll try to get some pics of it for ya.

I painted mine red to match my car, It looks good IMO.



There's a bit of a glare there.

Black would look good too.
