Highly recommended, eventhough at first glance they may look oversized.

Good luck all.
even at second glance, third, fourth, fifth, ...

You can get them from Courtesy Nissan.

Also if you are looking for the 06 taillights, Ultimate Z or Courtesy can also get them much faster than anyone here in CA.

I finally saw the 06 headlights in action at night and have to say they are superior in function to our 03-05s dispite what they may look like. Still not worth spending $1200 to upgrade though IMO.

I agree that they are better as far as function goes but I feel like anything if the o6 was to come out in o3 and we just got the old style lights on the 06 everyone would want the o6 because it looks more compact the light projector is smaller makes it look more advance.

Default 06 touring

I just got mine. I love everything about it except that I can't see the taillights! I replaced the air in the tires with nitrogen. It's helped keep the tire pressure more even hot or cold. But only a psi or two.

yeah you have to be kidding me if you don't like the new headlights, everytime I run into a Z driver they notice right away that I own an 06 and are amazed to finally see one. I do think it is a thing you have to see in person and a picture doesn't fully show the aggressiveness of it, combined with the track wheels and the tailights this car looks sportier than ever. Not to mention they took out that orange strip in the headlights too which also looks really good. And its great to know that while driving at night all cars in front of me are probably cusing and swearing about the headlights behind them

+1000

You hit the nail on the head. In person, these changes look amazing when you see the entire car. All of the small changes (headlights, tail lights, wheels, and front fascia) make the car look different from the 03-05 models. I think it was a well executed facelight.

you can get it through www.bonesenterprises.com. ..i believe the cost will be $560 each headlight (but then I could be incorrect tho)...call and ask for Rhonda--she is the owner of the company.

Too true, the improvements as a whole makes the 06 a no brainer to get over the previous years. The headlights, tail lights, front nose, the new wheels, various interior improvements with the mp3 playback with the bose............. all makes this one mean-*** ride when you see in person. When I picked up my 06 it was sitting next to an 05 same color as mine and seeing them side by side made me happier than ever that I waited, as I almost purchased an 05.
