Black light buckets or blue like the rest of the car
I am wondering which one looks better. Should I Paint the light buckets black or leave them blue like the car.

I would say black too... I have a blue IROC, and when I do paint I'm gonna go with black for the headlight pockets as well.

I don't think you'd go wrong either way. If you're going for a totally monchromatic look you could do blue. If you're going for a stock look do the black.

Nice I'm not too far away. I've always like the way the black headlight pockets look. Although if it's a dark enough blue then it'll be fairly hard to tell the difference at first glance.

If the base color & lack contrast enough, I'd say paint them.
If they are close or you have stripes, leave them body color.
