car bling

A lot of people like to dress up their cars. This is especially true for men. Some common modifications are mags, paint, and body kits, though I noticed that less attention is spent on the headlights of the car. I personally notice this part of the car first. You can tell a lot about a car just by looking at its headlights. It is also the first thing that people notice when they see your ride at night.

My personally preferenced are those halo headlights. These are those European looking headlights with the rim of the head lamp lit like a halo. These kinds of head lights are becoming popular now a days, since they’re readily available now. Unlike before when these kinds of headlamps can only be seen on high super cars like the Lamborghini Gallardo (one of my all time favorite cars).

A stock factory car can look totally different by simply changing the headlights on it. I see it as more of a practical as well as an aesthetic modification, since these kinds of head lamp project more focused light. Thanks to their halogen bulbs which is light years better than the conventional headlight bulbs being commercially installed in cars.

I personally prefer functionality over style. If the style does not add to functionality then what’s the point. For the halo-bulbs are they as bright as normal cars or by focused you mean it reduces brightness of say sidewalks impairing your vision on whether people might be attempting to cross? :)

they’re really bright which normally impairs the sight of incoming traffic and pedestrians ^^; these kind of bulbs have their own ballasts to power them.
