Since you will just get opinions, here's mine. I think they are : And if they aren't , they come pretty damn close to being rice.

Whoever considers halos rice can **** off. For a well-fitting stock replacement headlight that is cheaper than GM's version with comparable lighting, and a sweet halo effect, I say

Rice is a 3 foot spoiler on a cavalier. Putting a nice set of headlights on a nice car is not rice, yall take that name waay too far. If you like them then get em, its your car

Who care's what other's think!! Honestly, if you like it then do it. I really don't understand why so many people care what other's think, it reminds me of the kids in highschool who tried really hard to be cool and always did and acted the way other's wanted them to.

I'd hate to close this, but I have a good feeling this will turn into a "what is and isn't" rice debate. It won't go anywhere because everyone has different beliefs with car styling and the term 'rice' is just over-played.

As for my thoughts, I think the halos are unique and looks pretty good on some cars; take Zangel's camaro for an example. I however have always loved the look of the stock lights, and I like them even better when painted on certain cars (ie: mine). Basically its all up to you anyways, so look at a bunch of photo's of both and decide from there
