Replacing all exterior lights
 
Hi!

This is my first post. I picked up an 05 performance package z just a few days ago and I am kind of disappointed in the stock exterior lighting of the car. My buddy has a 2013 SS and I love the way the LEDs and HIDs look. It makes the car visible at night where as my car I feel like it is hardly visible.

I would like a good headlight kind of like this in appearance (http://www.topgearautosport.com/part...FZBlfgodQOwJpg) with LED driving lights that I can fit an HID bulb behind as well.

I am also looking for some LED rear lights.

I have no clue what to even look for when it comes to brake lights but I kind of want something like this for the turn signals ( )

I would really appreciate any recommendations as to what is quality. I would prefer everything to be clear lense with a black inner reflector or whatever it is called. Basically I want it all in the style of that first headlight I linked.

Regards,

Here we go again. Those lights, like virtually all the other aftermarket headlights, are junk. the ONLY lights to buy for a Z are the OEM '06> BiXenon headlights, or the DEPO equivalent. Plenty of threads about this, if you had searched, and plenty of info here about modding then to your liking - DRL's, Demon Eye's, etc. Please search and learn.

If you want to upgrade your brake lights, again, go OEM with the LED lights from the later cars. Some of the aftermarket tail lights can actually cause the car not to run, believe it or not. If you want some really nice LED signals and backup lights:

I have seen some of these in person and they look cheap. Definitely go the OEM route like dcains suggested. Here are set OEM LED tail lights in your area.
