Headlights there isn't much choice.

Chrome Projectors - LEDs on the side
Black Projectors - LEDs on the side
Chrome Projectors - LEDs on the top
Black Projectors - LEDs on the top

Chrome Stock style Headlamps w/ clear turnsignal
Black (Racoon) style Headlamp w/ clear turnsignal

Chrome Stock style Headlamp w/ light defusing pattern on turn signal
Black (Racoon) style Headlamp w/ light defusing pattern on turn signal

Personally, if I were to buy a set, I'd get the Black (Racoon) style Headlamp w/ light defusing pattern on turn signal. I'm not a fan of the clear turn signal lens that you can see the bulb. Then for a turn signal bulb, dont' use Silverstars but instead these in amber.

You also have the choice of Retrofitted Projectors but you'd have to make them yourself or pay someone several hundred bucks to do them for you.

They're similar to the Silverstars but without the Blueish coating and are instead more chrome but still light up Amber.

As for tail lights, either Stock or Export (no, not altezzas, the real export tails)

i agree with diablo taste wise but for a set of export tails he is lookin at $250+ i dunno if he is down with that if he is looking on ebay... i would go with racoon up front and just nightshade your rears... but mask them off and take your time... dont rush it

If you keep an eye out, sometimes they pop up cheaper... I picked up my 2nd set for only $70 I think.

i like my Raccoon style headlights....I think projectors are a little played out and depending on how your neon is setup they can look like the car has just been scared lol....depends totattly on your tastes...I do however have those nokya hyper white bulbs in them and i LOVE them

Smoke the tails and get the racoons in front. then just tint your windows.

well i guess racoons for the front think i can find a set on ebay? also rear tinted i guess i have yet to find anything chromed or even darkened that really excites me

There are always plenty of racoon style lights on eBay.
