Halos look good on some cars and bad on others. I think yours might look better with the whistler modded stockers.

funny how many people say ditch em' .... where as a year or two ago more people would have said keep them, i guess its just one of those things people get tired of. I've never liked them myself, the stockers look best IMO.

i love stock heads lights with whistlers or the ones that come with the ends black the most!

Brian006 your car would look so sick with whistlers and smoked clear turn signals! They Would go great with your SLP grill With the black top, black mirrors, black grill and other black on the car is why it would look so good!
