Hey everyone! Does anyone else share my opinion on the terrible looking headlights on the 2006 Z? I can't get over how much my eyes are drawn to these things. Sorry for the venting, but a bad move by Nissan to redesign something so beautiful on previous models.....

 

I actually agree... it kind of reminds me of some goofy cartoon looking eyes or something. I just cant put my finger on it.

I do perfer the 03-05 series head lamps.

 

The size of the projectors I can get used to and the LEDs are cool, but the stipled (dot shaded/diffused) upper turn signal area ruins the whole thing for me.

 

I like them both equally for different reasons.. I ahve an 04 and I don't think it would be worth chainging over though.

 

??? anyone got a pic/link of the new headlights? preferredly turned on? i haven't seen them.

 

This was also my first thought when i saw them. I don't like them, too.

 

I enjoy the bi-xenon head lights.

 

I love it!

 

pics?
a side by side comparison would be nice

 

I'm an 03-05 fan also...

The 06 have some good characteristics, but my eyes are drawn to them too much also.

 

I also heard, (but haven't confirmed it) that the '06 bumber is actually designed higher off the ground to get more clearance. Again I don't know why this would be done on a spots car.....if too many people are complaining about ground clearance...just buy an SUV....lol. In my opinion, the lower the better!

 

I love my 06' headlights!!

 

I know in pictures its not all that great, but I have to tell you, the Nissan dealer a few blocks from my house has an 06 GT PPW Roadster in front advertising with top down and frost leather interior. Its got to be one the most beautiful cars Ive ever seen, this is coming from me with my silverstone touring with wheels and all, it really made me go DAMN!! See them in person, Im sure it'll have a different effect.

 

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

 

i like them alot more than the 03-05 . and as a matter of fact if you 06 guys dont like your lights you can go into wwwricks2k.com and look at the clear headlight strip headlights for the 350z. if you like them those exact lights are from my car. used my car for the pics. id be happy to trade!

 

I finally saw the 06 headlights in person for the first time a couple of days ago. They're actually okay. I didn't think I would like them, but I thought they looked nice. I've been looking at my foggy 04 headlights for a year. Luckily, the 3M Plastic Polish I ordered arrived in the mail yesterday. I applied it this morning and my headlights look almost perfect now.

 

They're not that bad in person, kinda like em but not $1200 like em

 

who hates them? trade with my 05 then.

 

i like the led marker lights on them

 

Yeah, the earlier years look really aggressive. The 06's lights are fugly.
