Its all personal choice... I did the whistler mod cause it was the cheaper route... and the stock headlights flow better with the lines of the hood

I had the halo's but i took them off and did the Whistler mod i think it looks better it just goes with the lines of the car and the halo's didn't put out as much light as the stockers. Not to mention the big *** gap that was between the light and lip.
