The problem with aftermarket halos

when are manufactureers of these aftermarket going to realize that the major difference between theirs and oem ones are the size? the halos need to be big enough to where the top and bottom of the halos aren't really visible. anyone else notice this?

I had Eagle Eyes on my Camaro…I think the ring going all the way around is what made them better than OEM. Who wants two half moons when you can have the full circle?

I agree 100%. The full circle seems less aggressive to me.

I agree... the half look Looks more like a beast being awakened.
the wide eyed scared look is reserved for another car manufacturer

Agreed. I'd have to say my favorite halos are oem '10-'13 followed by '14.

Just get some aftermarket ones. These are a little bigger than the stock RS ones I had before.

The half circle don't look bad and can look aggressive. Here are some pictures of mine.

I personally don't think there is enough difference to complain.
