Fluted, I have a set in my truck with hids and the light is better than the same setup but with diamond cut. And honestly I like the fact they look more stock.

Get the Hellas. Diamond cut lights make for very scattered light output.

Hope you're putting in an upgraded harness too when you do the conversion. The Putco harness from eautoworks.com is a great product
