Default 06 Heads or Tails?

I am going to be purchasing either the 2006 headlights, or the taillights. What would be your first choice? I'm thinking heads.

Well, since most people only see a Z from behind (cause it's usually out in front), I might get the LED tails first... Lol! :-)

Price is not a problem, and to be honest I would rather get the more expensive one out of the way first. Headlights it is! I'll post pictures tonight or early tomorrow. Thanks for the imput.

If price is not a problem, why not get both?

If you drive dark roads at night(not just cruise city streets), there shouldn't be an option for you. Headlights, headlights, headlights. If they weren't stock on the '06s, I would gladly pay $1000 extra for those bi-xenons. Actually, I depend on them so much and they have eliminated my need for fog lamps(fog, deer detectors,etc.) that I'd up that a few hundred for what they save me by not needing fogs. They are one of my three favorite things about the Z. I obviously do a lot of country night driving. The tail lights are great too, but they help others while the headlights help me. Both are nice. Good luck on your decission.

Cool guy! I work 5 days a week and DO pay for all my mods. You should probably not talk anymore...

EDIT: You go to my school, who the hell do you think you are?
