By no means! I actually have a pair of projector fogs on my car and the
difference in lighting efficiency is awesome. I bought them at a shop
that had all the lights nicely wired and positioned against a dark wall,
so customers could check how they work. The projectors gave
significantly brighter light and better light cut-off (it's very
important if you don't want to dazzle others) than a small conventional
fogs. And I didn't want to make my car look aggressive with any big
lamps. Sure the projectors look cool. I'm not a poseur, but have nothing
against it if the form follows the function.
