Default Black headlights w/halo

Anyone knows where I can get some good black headlights for my is300 with halo?
because most I found are either not HID ready, for direct plug and play or dont have halo, or are just crappy headlights.
If you know a good website that sells them please let me know.
THANKS!!!!

Best bet is to buy a pair that's already painted and has them installed.
You can get new housings and there are companies who will crack them open, paint, install halos and send em to you. Or you can send your headlights out to have these things done but then you'll have downtime.

Or buy a used pair from someone who already had that work done.

I always worry about the seal job, some are better than others. If it isn't done correctly, it will leak and condense.

Anything else, like you said, isn't a good choice. not hid ready, bad fitment, quality of orkmanship and materials used.

AAC sells them all put together but the intal is really not that bad. Painting the housings is cake as well. It make take an afternoon to do this, did mine in about three hours (first time).

The halo rings are a bit tricky. You just have to make sure your placement is good and that you dont put pressure on he rings getting them back together.

Though if you want AAC to do it all I know it will be in the 400 range atleast.
