aftermarket headlights

Anyone have aftermarket headlights? I've been looking around and it looks like there are a bagillion options and I'm trying to narrow it down. Would love some input and especially pics. Thanks all!

Morimito C7 style or Morimito C8 style. There are several vendors on the forum who sell them.

I saw those. I definitely like them. Good to know they're good. Definitely prefer the C7 style to the C8. Thanks.

the lights look good but for $1800 after tax (which is ridiculous) I'd rather get a nitrous wet shot for 120 WHP

$1400 with tax. Also, I've always considered nitrous cheating. It's not always on power. If I could get an SC for $1400, sure, definitely a better investment. But I bought a red one and since I will be plastidipping I need a neutral colored headlight (read: black) anyway, so might as well get something better than stock

Again, because it's literally a button to push. It's not power you can always rely on. You have to actually turn it on. It's not REAL power. You can't "run out" of a cam, or forced air, or 1s and 0s from a tune (you could run out of gas but then the car just wouldn't go). You run out of nitrous, you're back to "normal" power. Also it's not exactly great for your engine to run it all the time, which is WHY it's a push button (or toggle switch, whatever) situation. But this is a thread about headlights.
