Pic Request : Black MINIs...

If anyone has a car that fits the following description, please post a picture...I am trying to decide what i want to do. For anyone that has a black mini with black painted headlight rings, or black vinyl headlight protectors, or both...I would like to see how each of these styles look. I really only want to see black minis, other colors dont really help me out.
I think the chrome and the chrome headlamps are too much bling, but im not sure if i should black out the rings, or black out the headlamps, or do both...postem if u gotem

thank you for the pictures. In the last pic, the headlights look a little different. Is there some kind of headlight cover on the headlights, or is it just the picture that makes it look different?

anyonoe else have a blk mini with black housing and chrome rings? or black rings with original housing?

The last pic is indeed with headlight covers. It was for a car show last year which I did take 1st place in the Mini category. The light rings were also painted at this point and vinyled on the rest!

i think i'll do the lens black first, and then see how i like it, i plan on leaving a little chrome on the mini, not a total blackout...anyone know right off how much a new chrome headlight ring runs?
