post pics of color matched headlight pockets

I am about to get my car painted and I think I want the headlight pockets painted to match the car instead of being black. Please post pictures of your car, or others with the headlight pockets painted the same color as the car, if you want you can post some with the black pockets to.

Thanks in advance.

The black pockets look better.

I think that they look better painted the same color as the car.

I too think that the flat black looks better. It's a nice detail that breaks up the monotony of using a single color.

My '89 is black. I recently painted the front facia (it's a replacement) and am seriously thinking about changing the headlight area to flat black.
