Regular for me, i think they look more sinister and i agree they looked great on Bumblebee.

The Halos are to Euro looking for me, looks like they belong on a BMW....actually they look exactly the same.

I'll use the $1200 to give the Red Dragon more power haha.

i'm assuming he was refering the the HID part of the lights - which DO have an immense improvement on light quality/output

last time my car was in the shop, my rental was a cheapo Kia - i turned on the headlights and i thought they busted or dying got used to HIDs nice white lights lol

Non-RS = meaner, more sinister.
RS = More "refined" and high-tech.
+1 on that ^^. That is a great way to describe it. Therefore, I went for the Non-RS...

Just check your state laws. In California they have to be DOT approved. And also, retrofitting a standard head light to fit a HID bulb is illegal, it has to be the entire housing changed. I looked into this awhile ago for a motorcycle and a car. But there are a bunch of web sites that carry these types of head lights.

Yes sir, it's because of the amount and quality of light they throw out. In fact, the cosmetics of it never even entered into it.
