So, I got these on a whim and I don't know what I think of them now that they're here. I have a week to decide, and yeah, yeah i know, ultimately it's up to me but I wanted some outsider feedback. Let me know! thanks

Ebay buy? they look alright, but how's the quality of the light beams? You put them on your car yet?

Yeah I've heard most guys replace the bulbs or put HID's in because the ones that come with the lights usually suck I guess. Put them on the car and see how you like them, It will only take you like 10 minutes. Take out the grill and the side garnishes and then it's 3 10mm bolts for each headlight and they pop out. You never know, you may light them once they're on the car.

Not terrible looking.

Do the lights have nice thick glass lenses? (incase of a rock jumping up at your car while driving)

Those lights are known to be really crappy, that's why they are so cheap. The beam pattern from the projectors is awful and the lighting will be worse than the stock lights.
