I'm having mixed thoughts, just test fitting for now to see if I like em.

Let me know what you think:

Not feeling it. Maybe if the Saleen bumper didn't have those fogs there it would look better.

I was thinking the same, the round lights on the saleen bumper throws it off

I've yet to see any aftermarket lights that don't look cheap and ricey. These are no exception.

I vote No! looks like Terminator eyes or something... you would need red tint and to have a recording say "I'll be back"...

Hell, I like altezza taillights, and I still have to say they are not doing it. The black tabs around the bulb look funny.

On a black car, I would rather have the rings/housing blended (smoked) in especially with the lack of chrome on the front. If there was chrome on the front, it would probably be a different story. Also, like most have said, the Saleen fogs are kinda throwing the whole vibe off.

Pardon the Photochop on these two, but an idea of what I am talking about:

Something along the lines of this would fit it a little better:

or how my old 2004 Impala Spyder Smoked Projectors were:

notice how the rings and the slight chrome on the front kinda works together:

You can get away with it on the Saleen IMO.....that sweet hood takes ones eyes off the headlights IMO.

I think if you smoke the lenses and dip the rings black instead of chrome then you should be good to go!

The chrome surrounds are killing the look. Paint those a gloss black and it will look good IMO
