Depends...

I prefer them off, the car looks cleaner, newer and it better for airflow. However, you can see fuck all at night lol

Spot lights on mate! If people want a newer looking car they should buy one! Spots are a part of what an eighties classic has and should stay that way!

Block the airflow ? Look where they sit. Hardly block the intercooler much do they ? Bumper stops much more than they ever will/do: hence why people go for the big cut-out look.

You are right about driving at night tho
