Default New lights, good and bad? what to get?

Well I like the 99-00 front end but I dont think i'm going to do the conversion on my 96. The extra money can go towards better things right now. So looking at lights I was thinking of the clear, no reflector on it but black housing. Not sure how that will look on a silver car. Anyways do I go the regular CTR style or do I get Projector/Halo light setup? I'm buying the EBAY stuff. What would be the pros or cons of going with the projector light setup? Heres the 2 styles:

I've personally never liked the one projector and one round halogen lights, but I do like the ek headlights with hid retrofits. If had to choose between the two I would pick the ctr headlights. I've always had a problem with projector headlights not giving enough lighting over the oem headlights, but that's just me.

well they both suck, but the regualr ol head lights are best.
have you looked into just taking your oem lights apart and painting them?

i agree with above the projecotrs just dont put out a lot of light, the other will be better but noithing like oe

Well with projectors and HID's wouldnt it be brighter than stock? I could just paint the stock ones but I dont like the orange reflector deal on the 96-98 I like the clear lights all the way.
