What do you think?

Here's the Halos:

This really doesn't seem important enough to warrant this many threads heh. It's your car, you have seen it both ways IN PERSON, you bought them so you obviously liked them some. Decide for yourself whichever makes you happier, and keep it that way.

Yeah, sorry about all the posts. The first ones I was really hating them last night and just needed an un-bias opinion BUT everyone said the pics sucked so I deleted the old one and started a new one today...

Yeah, they're growing on me ! Thanks again!

Here's some pics with the new turn signals (OTHER PICS THERE WERE NONE IN, these are clear with a black housing and amber bulbs) as well (I threw the scoop on there for the hell of it):







Here's one without the scoop for comparison:



I'll probably throw the scoop on and sell it, buy an SS hood, paint the scoop grey (like the rims) and put a satin insert in it (to match the headlights and grille like this (but different colors):



What do you think, SS Hood or the scoop I have??? You like the new turn signals?

I think the halo's look like ***. Even thought the housings still only have two humps that flow with the hood, the middle section, with the halo's, totaly disrupts the flow of the lights.

halo's look badass on your car, and i'd say go with the SS hood instead of that scoop...

hmm, i usually hate halos because they don't look like they belong on a camaro - but i will admit they do match that color nicely

regardless, i liked your old setup better - if the whistlers weren't foggy.

WOW, now THAT is a compliment

Silver (sort of) said the Halos look NICE, I had to read it twice because I thought he would say RICE...

Anyways, thanks man! I am still REALLY on the fence...

Mainly I am trying to decide on my car's finished look...

I like the Berger cars, BUT everyone has SS hoods and spoilers...

Halos, ZL1 hood (not scoop) and ZR28 spoiler will be different and a nice look but I think I just want a Berger clone (SS hood with Manta and insert, SS spoiler and Whistlers) to drive...

I'd say ditch the halos for some crystal clear stockers with the Whistler mod done to them.

Even though i have the Whistlers, I think the Halos look better on your car. I just ordered the same clear corners and can't wait to get them on the car!

Not a fan of the halo's, sorry. I would go back to the whistler mod. The halo's just don't follow the hood line IMHO. Not a big fan of the scoop either. I like the stock hood or the SS hood on NBM. Your car sure is clean though.
