I think they would look good if someone could make them to mimic a new Corvette style headlight- color matched and not "fabricated" looking.

I have heard that these style headlights have a heat generating problem. Just putting it out there. I would be hesitant on getting these lights from ebay.

if you got creative and read up on how to make your own lenses (not that hard) like they do you could spend less money and make something unique!

If they would make the big light round instead of square they would look good, that square light makes them look like poo.
