Default I need your off road light opinions

I have had these piaa lights on my H3 for some time, the idea of them sounded cool but I have a very small issue with them. These lights are nice, they have a yellow fog light with a very distinct cut off pattern that you can use on the road, they also have a bright long range off road light for off roading all in 1 bulb. What they also have is a small LED that lights up at night for a cool look, sort of like extra running lights, I have not seen these on any other vehicle. Here are some pics, the off road lights you see are lite up with the LED's that are always on with your headlight. I wont tell you my issue yet because I dont want to bias your opinion. It does add some bling value to the H3 and makes it stand out that much more. So what do all you think??

I posted more seperatly cuz they are large files.

Look cool to me. They are a different color than your regular lights but I don't think that's a big deal. Is the driver side one leaning back a bit in the bottom (daytime) photo?

Good eye! yes it is leaning back, I was kinda rough with the H3 that day. I was in Baja doing about 75 across this dry lake bed which just rattled it loose.

OK..I guess people here are more interested in learning how many quarts of oil the H3 takes or what the bolt pattern is on the wheels. Thanks for your opinion alrock, again you got it right, my issue is that they are not the same color as the headlights, they have a blue tint to them due to the reflector. They were advertised as a white LED but it looks blue, kinda bugs me ( I can be **** when it comes to my cars )....I think I may get rid of them. Hella has lights with a light ring similiar to the BMW headlights which I may go for, but they are ~$450...kind of expensive. One of the owners of Tapout ( if your a MMA fan ) had the Hella lights I want on his H1 and they look cool.

These lower grill offr-road lights are powerful but they are pretty low.

GM lower grill lights. The roof lights are Plus 1 light bar from Xtreme Autosports. They are bright and the bar is adjustable.

Thanks for all your reply's but I guess I was a little vague in my request for opinions...I wanted your opinions on howMY lights look, wether you like the way they look with the LED's or not. I am on the fence wether or not to keep them or replace them and I just wanted some other peoples input on how they look.
