Default Aftermarket Headlight!!

Hey everyone,

I was just wondering. Did any company make a headlight for our cars other than the OEM.

I think it is time to do so. What do you think?

If someone sold aftermarket "black-out" headlights, I'd be all over that.

Misleading title, a question mark would help.

Anywho, I think it is just more complicated to make headlight units because of the HID and the auto leveling system the 2IS have (or at least more complicated than tail-lights I would guess). I agree though, there should be some available by now.

if they were available i would have a set, given that the quality if close to that of oem. many of the aftermarket headlamps just arent the same with respect to fitment, beam cutoff etc.

Question: What is the easiest way to cheapen/ruin the look of a car?
Answer: Put some cheap A** after market headlights and tail lights on it.

I really don't get why people want to fock with the headlights at all....
