Default Black, gray, or chrome OEM HID headlight options

I have a 2013 XLT with the chrome package. I want to upgrade to OEM HID headlights and am wondering which color people would choose or have chosen. I don't plan to PTM my bumpers or replace any of the chrome. Here is a pic of the truck and of the headlights. I was told black would look good but any advice would help. Thanks.

I have the same - XLT w/ Chrome pkg but in white. Went with the chrome HID and looks great. I think it matches the truck well.

Thanks rangerrick! That might make it harder. They all look good. That black looks sweet though. If I ever decide to change tail lights that might give me more options. Tough decision.

I think chrome would look best since you already have the chrome theme going on and have no plans to eliminate any chrome.

I have the grey ones. I think they look great and so do non-f150forum members lol. But if I had no plans of replacing my grille, I would've go chrome.

I think PTM looks good but I don't want to spend the money to have all the chrome done. If I had a sterling gray truck I would go the gray route but it does make sense to keep it chrome if I'm not going to change anything else.
