Option E - stock!Seriously, out of those Option D looks the best IMO.

On a side note, I just don't understand spending money on a part unless it somehow enhances the performance over the part it is replacing. I know, I'm weird. I just can't spend money on "looks" only parts.

Thats why I'd recommend he bust out the tape and paint/nightshade and paint the stock lights. It is a bit time consuming, but it is cheap and you can customize the look.

Hey thanks for all the input guys!

Coondog....Thanks for the pic, I like the way they look on your truck, how good are they compared to stock when it comes to lighting? Also, your hood scoop looks pretty good, got any more pics of it or the install? Is it functional? What kind is it and how much was it?

the lights are night and day compared to stock...they are projectors so it has a light cutoff point thats a straight line about 2 feet above your sight line if you know what i mean...they dont just fade to dark like regular bulbs if that makes more sense.... the scoop is from a 2000 something mustang saleen edition. its bolted on with six bolts but i never cut the hole threw the hood.
