    The Cibie 5 3/4" headlights, are they curved like the stock US sealed beams or do they project out light the Hella flat faced headlights? The front clearance in a Testarossa is limited.

    The common Cibie 5 4/3" round headlamps are convex like sealed beams.

    Cibie are typically curved front, Hella are typically flat. I have used both brands and found them both to be infinitely superior to standard or halogen sealed beams. Cibies are considered by many to be superior to Hella, they may be...but would be happy with either.
