Default Anzo headlight assemblies any good?

Hello all. I did do a search, but didn't really find what I was looking for. It seems that the general consensus when a base or non-HID car needs lenses is to just convert to the 06+ HID setup. but that's not what the car owner wants to do. She likes the look of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anzo-USA-121446-Headlight-Assembly-Clear-Lens-Pair-CCFL-Black-/301155335859?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3A350Z&hash=item461e41beb3&vxp=mtr But I was wondering how well the lenses hold up. It's an '05 so the OE lenses have held up well enough. I've given her the options I know of(OE replacements, these, and HID upgrade) and she wants something that doesn't involve wiring mods. Is there another manufacturer(s) I should let her look through or just convince her to go back with OE replacements? Thanks

http://www.ebay.com/itm/DEPO-BLACK-D2S-HOUSING-PROJECTOR-HEADLIGHTS-FOR-2003-2009-NISSAN-350Z-JDM-LOOK-/310950209347?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3A350Z&hash=item486613a743&vxp=mtrThese look like 06 but are blacked out instead of chrome. I'm getting them ASAP I hope. Much better than those ugly ones

Are oem headlights expensive? The ones xman posted are much better. The Anzo look so damn cheap.

I have the Depo black 06+ lights. The projector isn't as good as the OEM 06+ lights but they are definitely better than the 03-05 proflector. Looks much better as well.

Thanks for posting up the Depos, I think they look better than the others also. I wasn't a fan of the way the Anzos look, but everyone's taste is different. I think they might have just been the first blacked out lenses she found. From the looks of things she's starting to trim the car in black. I also think the 06+ lens is a good option, but it's her car and she put the kibosh on wiring mods.
