The only lighting output that is effected in Bats headlights are the blinkers. Everything else is the same. But once the bulbs start to blink they look normal.

The blinker bulb is dual filiment. It one at all time and also blinks. Since the top part is painted.. The light when normally lit looks a little duller but once it blinks the light will look normal.

Just take a look at http://clearcorners.com/products/nissan/350zx3/, they have plenty of pics of the LS with blacked-out housing.
