Just installed these headlights on my car.
I'm very happy with the overall style of them.
The pictures make the signal lights look way more red than they are.
I plan on changing out the signal bulbs with something more pleasing.

I absolutely love the rainbow effect that the plastic gives at certain angles.
I wasn't expecting it to be there but I am happy that it is.

So, these are just the unmodified halo projector headlights?  What makes them spec-d compared to the other headlights you buy on eBay?

Well they are made by the company Spec-D.
I can easily install a 9006 hid kit when I want.

Its your car. Puke Just my .02.

How's the light output? From what I've seen in pictures, they're horrible.

The output with halogen bulbs is just as much any halogen lights. not horrible but not great.
but again, I may get an hid kit. Also I am for sure getting an LED amber to replace the bulb

well good thing LED's cost around $0.20 Each when you know where to get them.

The reason why I asked is because most people will open them up and remove the low quality fog light projector that these companies put in their headlights, and replace it with a higher quality OEM projector to get better output.  The output of these headlights is actually worse than OEM halogen headlights.  I guarantee that putting in a HID kit will not make your headlights better.  If anything, slapping in a HID kit will just create glare and and awful color.  The reason why I asked if Spec-D was anything special is because these are commonly referred to as the eBay dual halo headlights.

you can remove the drl fuse that is located in the interior fuse box, then remove your instrument cluster and cover the annoying drl warning light with some black electrical tape.
