Question Looking to buy aftermarket headlights. Suggestions?

Hi

I'm a recent owner of a 05' G35 coupe and i'm looking to purchase a pair of aftermarket headlights. I don't know a whole lot about them, so I was just looking to get a few suggestions from people with different kinds.

I would like them to have halos, CCFL or regular. I don't really mind.

Thanks!

Wait till aftermarket projectors come out for sale on here used, or just upgrade to projectors. Most other eBay specials are worse Quality then OEM.

Don't but any aftermarket headlights. Buy 06 OEM projectors, that's it.

I test drove one with the ebay headlights in it. Complete garbage. the LED's are barely lit in the daytime, and the whole thing looked like something off of an RC car. cheap cheap cheap at a high price! You can either go oem, or do a projector retrofit like I will be soon hopefully. Retrofits are always fun, and you can actually be original in your designs.
