Sick of seeing friggin'Halos....
I finally broke down and bought some.
I did the whistler mod to mine and was really fed up with the lenses. No matter how much sanding/polishing I did, the haze would always come back. I bought 2 sets of supposedly 'perfect' stock headlights from people, and both were getting hazy, of course. Buying new headlights on eBay, just stock ones, is almost $200.
So it was the procarparts ones vs. the halos, bc I was dying for new lenses. I bought the halos bc they happened to be cheaper that day (I think I paid $116 on ebay). I think they look pretty sharp. Not sure that I will hook up the halo ring or not, that's a little iffy in my opinion.

The main reason I haven't put them on mine is the fitment issues. I'm not going to have big gaps between my lamps and bumpers nor am I going to spend a half a day adjusting things to make it look right.
Nice cars though guys.

Mine actually fit pretty well compared to some that I have seen. I don't know if it was b/c of a different company that made them. I did notice on mine that they were a little loose when I put them on but nothing a little modifications can't fix. Now they won't move at all and I have no gaps at all.
I spent 3 hours getting my Halo's to line up. I put the factory brackets on, that helped. Finally I shimmed them out to fit nicely with some washers and they look pretty good now. And no, I didn't hook the halo ring up either.

Considering that my stock headlights even had a gap, my halos actually have a smaller gap. Im happy with them, I wish the halo was a lot brighter but Ill probably order another pair and do it myself.

Exactly, Ive NEVER seen another camaro with halos while driving around. Hell ill be lucky if I see another 4th gen driving around with its original paintjob and body panels intact. Most people beat these cars to hell without giving it another thought.
