Default headlamp color override

Hi... I am soon to order a 2012 Crystal Red Tint GS convertible with a black interior and a black top. I was also thinking about choosing the black headlamp color instead of the body colored headlamps... But in looking at tons of pictures I don't see a lot of cars that have this option... Can anyone comment on whether or not they think this is a good option to buy or not??? Does anyone have pictures of a Crystal Red Tint C6 with the black headlamp option??? Any help would be much appreciated... thanks... bob...

I think that the black headlamps would look great on that car. Too bad they don't offer a choice of black outside mirrors as well. I've always thought the combinatin of the black headlights and mirrors on red or yellow cars would look real good.

Default Yes, they do look good

Thanks for the feedback and the pictures... I'm convinced the black headlamp color is a winner... thanks... bob...

Once you go black, you never go back. Or so they say.

I think they'd look sweet.
