Certainly different. Personally I would want to see them fitted and working to make a judgement but in isolation not too keen.
Mk6 GTI Carbon Grey, 2010 Bluetooth and voice fitted, a few VCDS mods still a comfortable family car. Red Scirocco 2011 twin charger stage 1 - enjoyable drive now gone.  White 2016 Polo GTI (roller skate on steroids) replaced with an Indium Grey 2019 7.5 GTI PP.

What's the word I'm looking for - Cool?  No.  Wicked?  No.  Tragic?  Yes.

IMO they look very Halfords/aftermarket and I like the OEM look, so I wouldn’t choose to have them. Just my opinion though.
2020 Polo GTI Plus; Pure White, DSG (because they all are)
Gone but not forgotten;
2016 Polo GTI; Blue Silk
2011 mk6 Golf GTD; Carbon Grey
2007 mk5 Golf GT (2.0 170bhp TDI version); Deep Black Pearl
2002  mk4 Golf GTI (the 150 bhp diesel version); Deep Black Pearl

One persons silver is another's gold I guess..
For me, they have a bit of a 'Max Power' (anyone else remember the magazines?) aftermarket look that did once hold an appeal to me. I used to love customising my cars and individualising them - but now I'm 43 and stock / original is much more my preference.
But each to their own, eh...?
Reckon if you like the look of them, and they're road legal, who cares what anyone else thinks? The world would be a boring place if we all conformed to identical preferences....

I think without seeing them fitted its very hard to tell.

Going by a lot of aftermarket headlights they can be very hit and miss and often look cheap :(
