I had the Breathless Performance headlights about 15 years ago when they first came out. In my opinion they are still the best looking headlights ever for a C5. My Depo lights now light up the road better, but nowhere near as cool looking as the BP ones. I had the fans taken apart and their grilles painted same as the headlight buckets. The lights still fogged up sometimes.
