I have a feeling that I'm going to catch hell for asking this but, I'm going to anyways. I was wondering what you'll thought of these headlights?

Those have been out for a while, many people have them now, and even more will have them in the future.

They are called halo lights. Do a search on here and you'll find plenty of threads about them.

Basically, most people like them.
Here are some points:
* They come in chrome and blacked-out versions. (The ones in the pictures that you provided are the blacked-out ones.)
* They still only have two headlight bulbs. (There is a separate bulb for the glowing circle, but I dont know what it is.)
* They are not projector beams or HID (some have asked).
* The glowing circle is wired separate (you can wire them into the fog lights or parking lights).
* The glowing circle sits in front of the headlight bulbs and partially covers the low beam light. (Look closely at the pictures and you'll see what I mean.)

I had the pleasure of working with Matrix while I was in the parts bid-ness. Their products, while definitely not Top-Shelf, are pretty well made (everything we sold was anyway) and they had a pretty good warranty program. I'd get them if I had a 'camaro, seen a lot of them on here!

Best of luck!

They're nice-looking lights on the Camaros, but they won't fit too well on my 'bird
