There was a discussion on these not too long ago, also come with a silver backing instead of the black. Do a search on GT-R you'll probably find the thread.

They have high beams, they take a regular bulb but have a ball looking lens instead of the regular reflector thing.

They photo shopped them on a car on the other thread, try a search. They didn't look very good on the car if those photo shops are any indicator.

Not something I'd put on my car but I don't think they are that bad.

Agreed. They are just nasty looking and goes totally against the look of this car.
There is no modern retro look with those headlights.

They still need that GT-R touch (ie the center section that crosses through the mid section of the lights).

I'm in agreement that I'd like to see these AT NIGHT before I'd lay down any moolah for'm.

But as for them being rice, I don't agree, more euro than anything. If we're going to go all retro with the feedback, then drop 100hp, negate the 20" wheels, take out the power steering, windows and AC and maybe you'll have a closer approximation to 'old school'. But stop slapping the rice label on anything that utilizes technology that's newer than 1975!

I agree 100%, why is everything that not "Retrto" or "old school" RICE?? OK??? Were not talking wings and pasted on body kits, or fart cans..Just cause you dont like it dont make it rice.

NH-STANG I love that kitty pic, hilarious!!!

I think if I was to add some projector lights somewhere, I"d try some thing like Chip Fooze does with them, like next to the headlights or down lower on the bumper or something.

OK that said I dont care for them either, not cause e thier "rice", I just think they look out of place, and to me a Mustangs, not a Mustang unless the round headlights are outside the grill like the 64-69's ok. Im 50 years old so I guess I"m old school too!!!
