I think you're referring to "bi-xenon" headlamps. The low-beams also act as high beams by tilting upwards. I couldn't find anything like that on the Q45 specifications. I think this would be a good thing for G35 coupe owners to do since they don't have any kind of projector lens.

Is there a part number on just the projector lens or does one have to buy the entire headlamp assembly?

Headlights are cool but not cool enough to put down the dough for it. Dont get me wrong, no dis-respect here, just saying. However, I've always wanted fog lights on mine but the after market stuff looks sooo...aftermarket chessy. Anyway, I like his lights in the grill, is he selling the assembly or is it just his personal car thing?

that could be nothing less than a completely custom job, not like thats gonna plug right in I wouldnt think. I would think every set would have to be custom made.

This is exactly what i've been looking for on the z. A mod that made the front end look more aggressive, more exotic vs the plain headlight look of most japanese cars. Im interested in seeing some night time pics of there are some.

Those are absolutley awesome. I love that light on the Q and it looks awesome on the Z. Looks like some crazy JDM factory option. I would remove the eddie baur lettering on the other light though. That part makes it look home made.
Over all, very very cool.

Im guessing that was a flashlight. which means I dont see why you couldnt have it blink, unless you didnt want it to; or if your still driving it off batteries, which I really hope not.

I was one of the lucky few you got an early set of the clear reflector strips. All orange has been removed...almost. My bumper is coming off next week, hrmmm, look how easy it is to get that headlight assembly out...permission granted???

i had to go back & look at it a few times. it gets better evertime. i like how the upper light would be on with the parking lights on only(up top as opposed to down below~side) and how it just has the center multi-lens configuraton with the park lamp above. then the backing is blackened to give a darker headlight overall & show off the pieces in there w/o distracting shapes, lines, clutter etc. i like it............of course anything different is pretty cool! if everyone had it from the factory the headlights we currently have would seem really cool, lol!

substitute the eb light for a surefire single led (65 lumen) and now you are talking.
