You asked, so I'll tell you, with no malice or offense intended. They look cheap. And the cops are going to like them a whole bunch. You can't (legally) have blue lights on your car.

As already stated, Indiana state law requires those to be red. Interesting look, but might get you some tickets.

Sorry, not the look for me, but if you are pleased with the looks, that's all that matters. Congrats.
