2011 Mcs

Has anyone seen the new headlights with the black inserts? If, so, or owned, any pictures other than what's on the configurator? Thanks.


Just thinking about finalizing my order.....

Having seen it in person I like it. But then again I have an unnatural hatred of chrome

+1 in every aspect. Not a fan of chrome and it beats having to do the joey mod at a cost of $100.

I think it looks good on the darker colored cars, but bad on the lighter colored ones like Pepper White and White Silver.


It'll look 100x better if you paint the chrome trim around the headlights in body color.

the black housings make the mcs more aggressive looking and sporty. that's why i opt for it. it really depend depend on your preference. but if you choose this option, you will not get a chance to opt for the adaptive lights.
