not saying i like em, but with the PP grille it would look better...fogs about same size...i think i'm still a fan of taking the stock lights apart and painting the buckets to match - i really wanna do this soon

after seeing the photoshop I agree they look out of place. Although I answered my own qestion, they do look ricy just a tad.

I would stay away. Takes away from the intended look.

Maybe I'm just weird or "behind the times" , but....

The S197 is meant to look "retro", or basically old...

I can't see mixing old with something so high-tech looking as those headlights, my same thoughts on 20" wheels on S197's.

On S197's,to me, the more raw, basic, old looking, "period correct", the better!

They are cool lights, but look like they're more for a Euro performance sedan, or Asian car for example, something more modern, not for a true American, bare bones, "retro" look of an S197 Mustang.

JMHO

I'm not a big fan. However, those photochops made them look better than I would have thought they would.

Regardless, if it was me, I wouldn't buy them.

Well I will let you all know. I have them in my livingroom I got as a gift. I just ordered the cervini grill w/o fogs. I fell it should look preety cool with the new grill.
