something that makes our cars look very dated

I think the later thirdgens with the body kits (especially 91 to 92) have such a clean body style but I think the box 4x6 head lights make it look dated..even if you convert it hids it still looks dated for a car with such a sleek design like a Camaro, so these are a few solid lights I saw people installing in Camaros that I really am interested in : I think these came from a 93 c1500 truck or a buick not sure though Posted Image
Posted Image and these are halo projectors for a silverado (94) Posted Image I think all of these might require carving or some cutting what do you guys think?

each car has its points for the blue one if you did that convertion the housing is plastic so you can have alex paint them and it will look alot better than the black outs they make for the camaro lights as for the red one it looks ok i guess during the day but if there was a night picture that thing would look pretty cool people wouldnt know what the hell is comin at them

Personally the red one is my least favorite... they need to get rid of a few shapes, they have squares rectangles circles ovals... its looks like too many lights even though it is the same amount.
