The 06 headlights are ghey IMO. Combine that with the new front bumper and the car is smiling at you. Chevron anyone? The next Herbie perhaps? The 03-05 headlamps look WAYY more aggressive. But the 06 tail lights are a different story....

People ether love or hate the 06 headlights, I personally like most everything on the 06. But to each his own.

Thats such a perfect comparison. I never really like the front view of the Z, now I know why but then again, pictures don't do the Z full justice.

Anyone knows the difference between 06 headlight and 04/05's?
Is it larger bulb? or the whole unit is new.
Is it possible that we can modify to get the same effect/look.
Thanks,

It's a totally different unit. Bi-Xenon head light.

You can get the 06 headlights and tail lights for 04/05. I don't know if there are any modification that need to be made to install them. Hope this helps

I haven't had the chance to see one on the road yet, let alone at night.
I'll be on the look out!

I’m not sure if I’m crazy about them yet. Maybe they will grow on me.

The LED tail lights are off the HOOK!

The pictures don't do them justice.

When we all first saw the Stillen meet pictures, I thought they were terrible. But after I've seen them in person and MOST IMPORTANTLY, when they are working: they are a huge improvement over the reflector Xenons.

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

Good luck all.
