Best bang for the Buck are Silverstars for $25 a Pair. next best is probably PIAA bulbs for around $100 or You can do an HID conversion for about $350

talk to a member named jun about his OEM HID upgrade, its def the best bang for the buck. however if you just want to stick with your halogens then the already suggests brands are fine. don't buy cheap generic brands off ebay.

Sylvania.com keeps a list of all bulbs needed for the Z,

H7 is the appropriate bulb for the Head Lights. You might as well pick them up at your local autoparts store.

I just put in Jun's OEM HID kit, and it's unbelievable how bright these things are vs. our stock base lights.
