I have fluted lenses with my $40 H4 LED bulbs and they work great, both high beam and low beam. I also wanted to maintain the stock fluted lens look, and this worked great for me. Going on 1 year of use, and no issues. I also have a single pulley setup so my alternator puts out less juice, so getting these low energy consumption ones fit the bill.

From what I've read, it seems that fluted lenses are not exactly ideal for LED's, but symmetrically fluted lenses distort the cut-off to a lesser degree than the asymmetrically fluted lenses.
