HID headlights or stock headlights with halos?

Looking to get oracle halos for my Camaro, but only the headlights. So what I'm wondering is whether they would look better with just the factory headlights I have in the Camaro now, or HID headlights? Give me your opinions! Thanks!

I don't think you can use aftermarket halos on the stock halogens. It would probably look weird too with the two different colors.

I had them for a year and then sold them to get RS headlights. They look decent.

Yours look great tbh, but are the RS headlights able to change colours? That's one of the main reasons I wanna get something like this so that I'm able to switch between colours.
