Default To Halo or Not To Halo That's The Question?

Hello CL Folks,

I am at a crossroads w/ my GS, I know for sure I want to paint the back plate of my headslights black (not smoked because I do not want the pigs to come after me) but I am also considering getting a Halo set.

I am at a 50/50 split & need opinions, a piece of me wants them but a piece of me would feel like a poser if I did get them as if I would have a wannabe BMW.

All opinions are accepted - the good, bad & the ugly lol

Peace

ive seen a few cars in person with these on and it completely changes the cars classy appearance. unless youre into the sporty, street race type style for your car then get it. keep in mind these headlight will attract the officers also given 80% of the people with aftermarket halos keep that on only instead of driving with their headlights on thinking its sufficient lighting.

imo stick with oem or find a set of 430 headlights with the xenon (if u dont already have it)

I've seen some in person and don't care for them. feel as if they take away from the overall look.

I am not a fan of those either. My favorite lights by far are the q45 projector lights. But those are more of a project to Install.

I prefer the stock lights over those halos.

They are played out now. Too many low end vehicles trying to sport the halo has now cheapened the look.
