Just because something is moving faster than the speed of light doesn't mean the light reflected from it never reaches our eyes.
I think another way to perceive it is as if you have a buffer that is beginning to overflow because you can't empty it faster than the speed of light. That overflow is how I'd imagine you'd detect FTL objects. It's like the visual equivalent of a sonic boom. Again idk what I'm talking about, but it was nice to think about :)
