I know most hate, but your thoughts on these lights?

I wasn't a huge fan of getting these new headlights or tail lights because frankly its just not an America design it seems, ha! But I bought halo projector headlights and led tail lights for giggles if you will. I actually like the way it looks, I think it goes great with the blue of the truck and the chrome. I have chrome door pillars on the way and also chrome mirror caps on the way. Just wondering what your thoughts were with the lights. I'll try and get some up of the headlights on.
Nevertheless, just looking for your personal opinion. Positive or negative state it. All I ask if you don't make comments that will become personal; only seems fair enough.
Anyhow, there are the pictures.
Take care
J.

Not a fan of the taillights at all.... my opinion is tails should be tinted on the darker color trucks. The headlights aren't too bad, would be nice to see how they function.

How much for the lights?? Where did you get them?? How was the install on the headlights??

I don't love or hate the looks of the various F150 projectors, but evidently the light pattern is horrible, even worse than the already crappy factory headlights. And putting HID conversions in them evidently makes it even worse!

I wish somebody would offer a set of F150 projector-style lights with high quality projector lenses designed for HID bulbs, integrated ballasts, etc.

I do also like the blacked out look. If I had a white or black truck I'd black it out for sure. I think if I blacked them out with all the chrome, it wouldn't look good with the color of the truck. It might but not sure. I bout the lights for 150$ off ebay. Install was extremely simple. Just tapped into the parking like wire.
The functionality of the lights are great in a night driving condition. I do need to adjust the passenger side a little, but as far as coverage, its fantastic. Way more than the original head lights and also more than my HID's I had.
Just like with anything though, some like it...alot don't haha!

To each his own, but those heads and tails do nothing for the truck. Just being honest.
