Certainly different. Personally I would want to see them fitted and working to make a judgement but in isolation not too keen.

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.

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 :(
