Default Keep the Raxioms or no?

Dale did a little photoshop for me so I didn't have to go take my bumper off to see what the stock lamps look like now with the new grill and fascia on. Thank again Dale! I like both looks but am having a hard time deciding which I like better. Thoughts?

With:


Without:


Another With the Raxioms w/ lights off:

Ya I feel it was kind of an impulse buy. Every now and then I look at them and I don't like them. Then sometimes I really do like them. Functionally they are great. Light output with an HID is amazing.

I'm not a huge fan, but they don't look too bad on your car since it's black.

I don't think I'd like them on any other car, but they look good on yours.

Yeah get rid of the raxioms. I want to be the only one with them.

Definitely like the stock better. I really wish raxiom had a less flashy HID projector than the halo ones.

Default Re: Keep the Raxioms or no?

I don't understand why aftermarket manufacturers always feel inclined to add halos and or leds to every projector housing. It's so hard to find ones that look like OE.
