Projector headlight companies?

Hey guys I searched for a company that would make a quality projector headlight for my 05 g35x sedan. I am tired of the reflector housings and driving with them at night. They just dont light the road up enough for me.
I found some but they look cheap. If i cant find one I might just end up buying the ebay ones with the LED bars on the side. I heard they fade within a couple of months. So I was wondering if any of you guys know of any quality made products that is somewhat affordable lol. Thanks and I love my G!

well anyone that does a retrofit on your housing would still prob charge you about 450-700 for just dual projectors. if you wanna do quads it can get close to 1k. quads are pure sex though ^________^

OP in the headlight world you can have good quality or you can have "somewhat affordable" but not both. Cheapest option is to retrofit your own OEM headlights if you're handy enough.

Hey thanks guys for the replies! Feeling the love
Am I right in assuming I will need new bulbs and ballasts to fit into the morimoto projectors?
Is it possible to use my stock ones? I am just trying to save as much money as possible.
Thanks guys.

If you get morimoto projectors you will need h1 hid bulbs and d2s to amp adapter. You will need the adapter if your car came stock with HIDs and you want to keep your oem ballast.

FX-R, TL's or TSX you will just need d2s bulbs.

If you're going to pay someone to do a retrofit you should get TL or FX-R projectors. I wouldn't pay anyone to install Morimoto projectors. They just screw on to the housing from the back. That's like giving your money away to install an air filter.
