Default Need Headlight help...

hello all,
need a few opinions. I am looking at replacing my "projector" headlights. What should I replace them with. I found these which dont look all that bad http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MakeTrack=true Or there are these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/94-95...22267966QQrdZ1 Any opinions? the only reason I ask is because I honestly cant tell which headlights I like better. I dont have much taste when it comes to this, I purchased Euro type before and need to get back to pure american non ricer ride... thanks for any help guys.... T. J. Oh, and i know they are cheap, but I change my mind a lot and will problay change them again in a couple of years. If they do leak, I will just silicone the sides up...

RedRoller thanks.... The hood is Cervinis. www.cervinis.com I recommend the hood. It is completely finished off underneath, and very well made. I had a buddy that purchased a cheaper hood, it is ugly as sin under neath (plain fiberglass) and didnt fit right between his fenders. Spend the extra cash, it is way worth it... still not sure about those headlights yet......

yep either the first ones, or smoked ones ...not the second ones, border-line rice is my opinion too.
