OK Guys, I never expected I would get so much attention on this thread but the halos turned out really well. This is a picture of my car on the trailor when my stock tranny blew. It is the only picture that I have that shows the lights (but I took it on my camera phone).




Thanks for all of the opinions guys, let me know what you think now...

Definetly do it... i wish i could have some kind of headlight setup like that for my bird... i dont consider headlights ricey on a good looking car... i would consider headlights like that on a honda ricey... what it all boils down to is each individual's definition of ricey.

the lights came out great, but i think the front bumper ground affects make it look like a snapping turtle, (no offense) and it isn't ricey, i think the body mods just clash with each other.

I think your car is all around beautiful. I personally love ground effects on camaro's. I've also seen your hood on websites before but never imagined it could look that good on a camaro.... nice work, and good luck with the new tranny

I had a long debate on getting mine. Well I received them for x-mas last year and it took 2 long weeks before I decided to put them on. I just didn't think they would look right. Well after putting them on....I've grown to love them and get compliments left and right.
