Here is the old light.
As you can see, it has a rather large hole burned into it. What you don't see is that it didn't actually fit into the space so they took the top off of it.
Here is what we replaced it with. FYI, ours is not plastic.
I am thinking the 100 watt cfl might be overkill, it shines like a beacon in the dark,but you can see.
For your amusement, old light new light

When we moved in, the front of our house was so dark I was actually shopping for the lights that go in the ground along the walkway. Before I bought them, fortunately, one of the front bulbs burned out. When I went to replace it, I discovered that they only had 40 watt bulbs in there. I replaced them all with 75 watt bulbs and suddenly the house was brightly lit and I didn't need to spend the money on the walk lights.
