Yeah black or chrome both would look nice on your almond neon . If your going to add more black to it than get the black ones and if your going more chrome than get the chrome ones. I have a blacked out sxt so thats why I got black .

Got the lights today. Put them in with regular bulbs until this weekend whe I can do the hid's. But I have a question.
In this picture the redd & black wires with spade connectors look like they should be on the other side of the grommet? I hooked power to the red one and the light comes on so that's what I am thinking. Yes I am gonna make up a relay harness too.

looks good! What happened to your hood? It is dull compared to your fenders. also looks like you need a new pass. side fog light lens.

Very nice chrome looks good on your color. I love my halos in black and never have a trouble seeing at night way better than stock or plain black housings .

When my neon was brand new, at night on dark roads you could see a defintie line where the lights would not light up any higher. was really noticeable when climbing a hill. (took a bit to get used to)

Do these act the same way?

They look nice and with hids even better . I upgraded to icy white bulbs that look just like hids I got them from modern performance they are pretty pricey but will worth it. Never liked my hids so I sold them. Sound system is going to look awesome.
