yeah, there is halogen projectors like most ebay jumpoff headlights you can buy and then there is HID OEM projectors. Granted the halogen projectors have a better cutoff than a reflector housing but it still looks like shit and blinds people from certain angles (as opposed to reflectors which blind people regardless). There are a few cobalts running around here I have seen with ebay “projector” headlights. They look almost as bad as the LED tail lights they have too which stick out a foot past their rear bumper. I get a good laugh out of them when I see em though. :lol Nothing like buying a base model car and trying to pimp it out. In reality you’re just telling the world that you couldn’t afford a nice car, so you are taking the welfare approach and trying to make your otherwise a to b commuter car into something it’s not. ---

Happens all the time with v6 Mustangs. People cant afford the GT but yet they can afford to rice out their v6 like a 17 year old’s Civic. ---
